AutoDraft Pro AI

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Pete Alonso celebrated a remarkable return to Citi Field, hitting his 300th career home run during a three-game sweep of the New York Mets. Even Mets owner Steve Cohen applauded Alonso's milestone, which helped push Tuesday's game to extra innings. Alonso homered again in a 7-1 victory to cap the sweep. He signed a five-year, $155 million deal with Baltimore last winter after spending seven seasons in New York.
