Albert Pujols may be off to a slow start this season, but the future Hall of Famer is still reaching milestones in his 16th MLB season. 

The Angels slugger connected on his 563rd career home run Sunday, tying him with Hall of Famer Reggie Jackson for 13th on the all-time home run list.

The two-run homer ended Pujols' 0-for-26 slump, which was the longest of his career. He also doubled his RBI output on the season. 

Take a look at the blast off Mariners left-hander Wade Miley. 

According to MLB.com's Statcast, the ball left Pujols' bat at 110 mph and landed at a projected distance of 448 feet away. 

Pujols needs seven homers to pass Rafael Palmeiro for 12th place on the all-time home run list and needs 21 long balls to pass Mark McGwire and move into the top 10.
