I highly doubt it was actually him. He was only beginning his second season when the Rookie came out. Also, it came out at the end of March, where Pujols would likely be preparing for his season.

What does when it came out have to do with him prepping? The movie would have been shot well in advance of it being released. I would hope anyway -- it might be hard to do otherwise.

Movies finish shooting months before they actually come out. It is also not uncommon for real baseball players to make cameos in Baseball movies. In Mr. Baseball Frank Thomas played the rookie who took Jack Elliot's (Tom Selleck) job.
