Was Albert Pujols father Bienvenido Pujols an alcoholic?

Albert Pujols was born and raised in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, as the only child of Bienvenido Pujols. Like his son, his father is a sportsman and played as a softball pitcher.

Pujols was raised mostly by his grandmother, America Pujols, and 10 of his uncles and aunts. However, his childhood was different than many would think.

His father Bienvenido struggled with alcoholism. He often had to take his father home when he got drunk following games. This happened when he was 10 years old.

Despite what you might think, the memory did not haunt him. On the contrary, he still idolizes his father and according to him, God made him older.
