MLB News: Pete Alonso’s two-homer outing powers Mets past Dodgers

Add to Favorite
Added to Favorite


Pete Alonso hit two homers and collected five RBIs Wednesday night for the visiting New York Mets, who continued their surge with a 6-1 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Griffin Canning (6-2) tossed six scoreless innings for the Mets, who have won two of the first three games in the four-game set to clinch the season series between the teams who opposed one another in last year’s National League Championship Series. New York leads the series four games to two entering the Thursday finale.

Juan Soto opened the scoring on Wednesday with a run-scoring groundout for the Mets, who have won nine of 11 overall.

Andy Pages had three hits, including a ninth-inning homer, but the Dodgers lost for the third time in four games. Pages’ round-tripper allowed Los Angeles to avoid what would have been their fourth shutout defeat this season.

Alonso followed Soto’s RBI grounder by hitting a two-run homer on the next pitch from Tony Gonsolin (3-2).

The Mets’ fourth and final hit of the game was Alonso’s 447-foot three-run homer in the eighth, when Brandon Nimmo opened the inning by being hit by a pitch before Soto walked.

The two-homer game was the 22nd of Alonso’s career, which ties him for the most in franchise history with Darryl Strawberry. Alonso has 240 regular-season homers with the Mets, two behind David Wright for second place in club history and 12 behind Strawberry.

Canning, who entered Wednesday having allowed a combined eight runs (six earned) over 5 2/3 innings in his previous two starts, gave up three hits and one walk while striking out seven. The six wins this season match his total last year with the Los Angeles Angels and are one away from his career high.

New York reliever Jose Castillo wriggled out of a two-on, one-out jam in the seventh and wound up throwing two scoreless innings. Ryne Stanek pitched the ninth in a non-save situation, serving up Pages’ homer.

Gonsolin surrendered three runs (two earned) on three hits and three walks while striking out six over five innings.
