-Shaquille O’Neal will continue his quest to beat other athletes at their own sports on his new TV show “Shaq vs.” when he battles Albert Pujols in a home run derby during an episode set to air Sept. 1 on ABC. … Personally, I’d rather watch Shaq face a real test, like taking on an 8-year-old in a game of Operation.
