The Polar Bear has his paws on a major league record.Pete Alonso hit his 52nd homer to match Aaron Judge rookie mark in the New York Mets 4-2 win over the Atlanta Braves on Friday night. He has two games left to claim the record outright.Alonso connected in the first inning against Dallas Keuchel, narrowly clearing the wall in left field for a solo shot that tied Judge total from his breakout season with the New York Yankees in 2017.Article continues below ...The 24-year-old Alonso smiled as he hurried around the bases and pointed to the home fans as he crossed the plate Ozzie Albies Jersey. Teammates greeted him with handshakes outside the dugout, and the crowd at Citi Field insisted on a curtain call.Unbelievable, Alonso said.When I was rounding the bases I felt like a little kid. I felt like a 7-year-old kid. I was just really kind of overcome with pure joy.Keuchel was booed when he walked Alonso in the third inning, and the big slugger popped up and struck out in his final two at-bats.I knew it was going to happen eventually, Judge said after the Yankees 14-7 victory at Texas.Just the type of swing he has and watching someone at-bats early on in the year. This kid this one special. He got something about it. You saw his great determination in that Home Run Derby, too. He got the it factor.Alonso leads Cincinnati Eugenio Suárez by three for the majors home run lead and would be the first rookie since at least 1900 to claim the big league crown outright. Manager Mickey Callaway said he may bat Alonso leadoff in the final two games to get him extra at-bats, and Alonso was eager to slide up a spot.A history major in college withan affinity for that kind of stuff, Alonso said he struggling to comprehend the accomplishment.When I think of baseball history, I think old-timey guys like Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth, Barry Bonds, Alonso said.Geez, I mean, to think that as a rookie I hit more homers than everyone except for one guy, it nuts. It crazy. Im not trying to sound any other way. It just, wow.Alonso has already set franchise records for homers, total bases (343) and extra-base hits (84). He has 119 RBIs and 100 runs, becoming the first Mets rookie to reach triple digits in both categories. No New York player had reached those totals in any season since David Wright and Carlos Beltran in 2008.Alonso 119 RBIs are five shy of Wright franchise record set in 08.He been outstanding, Callaway said.There just something about Pete that draws everybody in.TOAST OF THE TOWNAlonso only conversations with Judge have been quick chats at first base during games, but Alonso said he may reach out and try to get dinner with Judge in the offseason. He grinned when asked about embracing a cross-borough home run rivalry.There nothing wrong with some friendly competition, he said.EASING INTO OCTOBERBraves star Freddie Freeman returned to the lineup and went 0 for 5 after taking four days off to rest his sore right elbow. The four-time All-Star has a career-high 38 homers but none since Sept. 1, and the NL East champions are hoping to get him right before they open an NL Division Series on Thursday.Freddie feels great, manager Brian Snitker said.I think it just more the fact he hadnt hit in four days https://www.abfansstore.com/Huascar_Ynoa_Jersey-53.With Ronald Acuña Jr. resting his tight left hip for the rest of the regular season, the Braves dropped to 97-63, ensuring the club will fall short of 100 wins. They havent reached triple digits since 2003.Keuchel (8-8) allowed four runs over five innings in his final postseason tuneup. The left-hander was pulled after 98 pitches.Just a few pitches Id like to have back, Keuchel said.But other than that, felt pretty good, so that really the main key.MORE METSMets starter Marcus Stroman (10-13) pitched two-run ball over six innings in his season finale Shane Carle Jersey, and J.D. Davis hit his 21st homer.Stroman allowed hits to four of his first five hitters the out was scorched 104 mph by Freeman for a fielder choice and trailed 2-0 after the top of the first. He finished with eight strikeouts, six hits and a walk.Over 11 starts after being acquired from Toronto in July, the 5-foot-7 Stroman went 4-2 with a 3.77 ERA.Seth Lugo pitched the final two innings for his sixth save a day after Callaway said hed limit Lugo to one-inning appearances with New York eliminated from postseason contention Jerry Blevins Jersey. Lugo struck out two, setting a career high with 104 for the season.TRAINERS ROOMBraves Freeman said he couldnt straighten his right arm before resting this week, but now feels like hell be good to go through the postseason. He expected to play all three games this weekend. OF Ender Inciarte (strained right hamstring) felt discomfort trying to run this week and has been shut down. Snitker said Inciarte may be ready by the second round of the playoffs. He last played Aug. 16. Speedy OF Billy Hamilton was pulled after jamming his thumb on a slide and was pulled as a precaution. He expected to be fine Satchel Paige Jersey.Mets 2B Robinson Canó was held out of the lineup with New York out of postseason contention.
