Pete Alonso Continues to Find his Swing, Launches Third Homer
Baltimore Orioles first baseman Pete Alonso has gotten off to a slow start offensively in his first year in Baltimore, but he could be on the verge of turning things around. Alonso went 1-for-4 at the plate in Wednesday's 8-6 win over the hosting Kansas City Royals with his third home run of the year, two RBI, two runs scored, and a walk to raise his season average to .213 and his OPS to .699. The 31-year-old former National League Rookie of the Year and five-time All-Star has hit .275/.408/.525 with two home runs, four doubles, and seven RBI in his last 11 games as he slowly heats up at the plate. Alonso was an All-Star with the New York Mets in each of the last four seasons before he signed with Baltimore in free agency over the winter. He's an elite source of power for fantasy managers, with at least 34 home runs in each of the last five MLB seasons. Alonso is up to three homers, 10 RBI, and 13 runs scored through his first 25 contests with the O's.
