Alonso’s Quest for 40 Home Runs
With his recent power surge, Pete Alonso is closing in on the 40-home run mark for the season. Achieving this milestone for the third straight year would be a significant personal accomplishment for Alonso, but his focus remains on contributing to the team’s success. As the Mets continue their playoff push, Alonso’s power could be a key factor in their offensive production and overall performance down the stretch.
Mets Dominate in Denver
The New York Mets closed out a successful three-game series in Denver with a commanding 9-1 win over the Colorado Rockies. The Mets jumped to an early 4-0 lead, giving starting pitcher David Peterson plenty of room to work. Peterson, a Colorado native, pitched five strong innings, allowing just one run on four hits, and improved his season record to 6-1. This victory not only secured the series for the Mets but also propelled them into second place in the National League East standings.

His power and speed have been crucial for the Mets, who have posted an impressive 37-19 record since June 2. Lindor’s consistency at the top of the lineup has been a key factor in the Mets' offensive surge this season.

Nimmo’s Streak Ends in Denver
Brandon Nimmo's impressive hitting streak at Coors Field came to an end in Wednesday night’s game. The Wyoming native had reached base in every game he played at the Denver ballpark until then, including a 17-game hitting streak. Despite going 0-for-5 on Wednesday, Nimmo’s presence at the plate has been a consistent force for the Mets, especially in his home region near Cheyenne, Wyoming.
