Sources: Albert Pujols signing one-year, $2.5 million deal with St. Louis Cardinals

The deal is worth $2.5 million, sources said, and will grant Pujols a part-time role in which he will seemingly start at designated hitter against lefties and otherwise serve as a late-game pinch-hitter. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch and The Athletic first reported the news.

Might not be totally accurate, The home run might have actually come in a later game (i.e. 42 left hand at bats later).

Switch-hitting Ozzie Smith hit the first left-handed home run...

Rick Hummel’s original article from October 15, 1985 is still available at the Post-Dispatch. The Hall of Fame writer called the moment a “3000-1 shot”. Smith, a switch-hitter, had 3009 career left-handed at-bats and had not yet hit a home run.
