Pete Alonso duplicated the monster game he had earlier this week against the Yankees, and he joined some heady company in Mets history.
With his four-homer week, Alonso joined Mike Piazza as the second player in Mets history to hit at least 30 home runs in four different seasons. “But every single day it’s a new challenge and a new adversity. I feel like I’m in a really good spot and I’m going to fight like hell to stay where I’m at.”Alonso snapped a scoreless tie Friday with a 453-foot homer to the second deck in left-center off Nationals starter MacKenzie Gore for a 3-0 lead in the fifth inning.
“Mechanically, there really wasn’t too much wrong. The biggest thing honestly has been taking my time, as much as the clock allows and to stay relaxed,” Alonso said.Alonso’s 17th career multi-homer game also tied him with Piazza and Carlos Beltran for the third-most in Mets history, trailing only Darryl Strawberry and David Wright .That leaves him behind Ralph Kiner , Albert Pujols , Eddie Mathews and Ryan Howard in MLB history, but Alonso’s total includes the COVID-shortened 2020 season.
