Pete Alonso launches 300th career home run, and it comes against the Mets
Alonso reached 300 career home runs with a ninth-inning solo shot and drew a curtain call from the New York crowd.
- On Tuesday, Baltimore Orioles first baseman Pete Alonso hit his 300th career home run at Citi Field against the New York Mets, reaching the significant milestone in his return to his former team.

- Baltimore sits four games back of the final AL wild-card spot, making every game in the three-game series against the Mets critical to their playoff push.
