Mets Slugger Climbs Franchise Ranks
New York Mets’ star Pete Alonso had a stellar week, earning National League Player of the Week honors and claiming second place on the Mets’ all-time home run list.
Alonso dominated last week, slashing .400/.486/.967 with five home runs, 15 RBI, and nine runs scored, powering the Mets to a 5-2 record. After a quieter 2024, the 2025 season has seen Alonso rebound impressively, boasting a .301/.396/.594 line with 17 home runs, a league-leading 61 RBI, and 20 doubles, tying for first in the NL.
In Sunday’s victory over the Colorado Rockies, Alonso smashed career home runs No. 242 and 243, surpassing David Wright for second on the Mets’ all-time list. He now trails Darryl Strawberry’s franchise record by just nine home runs.
With Alonso’s hot streak fueling the Mets’ success, fans are eager to see if he can chase down Strawberry’s mark. Stay tuned for more from this slugging sensation!
