Pete Alonso hits a three-run home run to left field, increasing the Mets' lead to 5-1 in the bottom of the 3rd inning

Francisco Lindor drove in two runs and Pete Alonso homered to power the Mets to a sweep of the Angels on Wednesday at Citi Field.

Alonso is closing in on the organization's all-time home run record, but he added more to his resume on Tuesday night.

After sitting out the Home Run Derby, Pete Alonso showcased his power in the Tuesday's MLB All-Star Game with a three-run home run in Atlanta.

The superstar tandem packed a punch on Wednesday afternoon, driving in a combined five runs on four hits in the Mets' sweep of the Angels at Citi Field.

Pete Alonso kept himself fresh for the All-Star Game and it paid off. However, skipping the Home Run Derby could hurt the event long term.

Alonso and Lindor combined on this day for five RBIs in leading a 6-3 victory over the Angels at Citi Field to complete a three-game sweep. It was the fourth straight win for the Mets, matching their longest streak in six weeks.

While Alonso wants to stay fresh in 2025 to help the Mets, he could have another reason for declining the event. Alonso signed a two-year, $54 million deal to return to the Mets in the offseason, but that deal contains an opt-out after 2025.
