Pete Alonso Goes Deep In Second Straight Contest
1 day agoNew York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso went 1-for-3 with a two-run blast and a walk during their victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday afternoon in their home opener. Alonso wasted little time as he went deep in the opening frame off Toronto right-hander Kevin Gausman. This blast also scored shortstop Francisco Lindor, who hit a leadoff double. Alonso would cross home plate again later in the sixth inning on a Starling Marte sacrifice fly. Since tallying just one hit in the first three contests of the regular season, Alonso has gone 6-for-15 at the plate with three home runs, two doubles and 10 RBI over his last four games. The 30-year-old has a disappointing 2024 campaign, to his standards, as he held a .240/.329/.459 line with 34 home runs. He will look to continue this hot stretch on Saturday, facing Toronto right-hander Chris Bassitt.
