Former Florida baseball star Pete Alonso becomes Mets' all-time home run leader

Former Florida baseball star Pete Alonso made Mets history Tuesday night, slugging his way past one of the franchise's most iconic names. Alonso launched career home run No. 253 in the bottom of the third inning against the Atlanta Braves, passing Darryl Strawberry for the most in New York Mets franchise history. The record-setting blast, his 27th of the season, was an opposite-field shot to right, traveling 387 feet with an exit velocity of 113 mph. The pitch, a 95 mph four-seam fastball, was thrown right down the middle of the plate by Atlanta's pitcher Spencer Strider. A mistake pitch that Alonso capitalized on. "As a kid, you don't really think that it's in the realm of possibility to be a franchise home run leader," Alonso said after the game. "It's a wild dream, to be honest. And it's really special." The former Gator wasn't finished. In the sixth inning, Alonso added another homer to his total. He finished the game going 3-for-5, helping power the Mets to a signature victory. Alonso's milestone night is the latest chapter in a career defined by power. Since debuting in 2019, he's been the heartbeat of New York's lineup, and his production this season—now 28 home runs and 96 RBI—has been critical to the Mets' playoff hopes. As Alonso continues to climb baseball's all-time leaderboards, his success serves as a point of pride for Gator Nation and a testament to the program's ability to produce stars at the sport's highest level.

Legendary Yankees, Mets Star Makes Bold Pete Alonso Claim After Historic Night

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Pete Alonso has been great for the Mets since his debut in 2019. On Tuesday night, he became the franchise's all-time home run leader. Alonso passed Darryl Strawberry as the team's home run leader in the third inning against the Atlanta Braves. When Alonso passed Strawberry, the legendary Gary Sheffield made a bold claim about Alonso. "He's gonna be the reason why they win a championship in New York if they ever do," Sheffield since on MLB Network when Alonso broke the record. NEW YORK - MAY 13: Gary Sheffield #10 of the New York Mets celebrates his eighth inning home run against the Atlanta Braves on May 13, 2009 at Citi Field in the Flushing neighborhood of... NEW YORK - MAY 13: Gary Sheffield #10 of the New York Mets celebrates his eighth inning home run against the Atlanta Braves on May 13, 2009 at Citi Field in the Flushing neighborhood of the Queens borough of New York City. MoreAlonso is likely going to hit free agency after the season. He has an opt-out in his contract and has every reason to test the market after a great season. This could be the only year where the Mets have Alonso, Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto. Sheffield knows the difficulty involved in winning a World Series. He won a World Series in 1997 with the Florida Marlins. Like Alonso, Sheffield was a great home run hitter, hitting 509 home runs in his career. Sheffield spent 22 years in the big leagues. He was a nine-time All-Star, five-time Silver Slugger and a batting champion. Sheffield played for the New York Yankees, New York Mets, Milwaukee Brewers, Marlins, San Diego Padres, Detroit Tigers and Atlanta Braves. He played just one season with the Mets, but understands the passion of Mets fans and their hunger for another World Series. Alonso has only played for the Mets and has consistently talked about his admiration for the team. However, if the Mets do not win the World Series this year, it will be up to the front office to make sure Alonso is around to help bring a championship to Queens in the future.

Mets' Pete Alonso Makes Retirement Timeline Announcement as Free Agency Looms

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. The New York Mets saw Pete Alonso break the franchise home run record on Tuesday night against the Atlanta Braves. He could hit free agency next year, and all of the pressure is on the Mets. Alonso has done nothing but produce at a high level since his debut in 2019. Only Aaron Judge has more home runs since then. However, Alonso has a player option after this season, and it would make sense for him to opt out and find a better deal. Alonso has been great this year, and the Mets will surely be involved in his free agency market. He has spent his entire career with the Mets so far, and could finish as one of the best players in franchise history if the Mets can keep him around. NEW YORK, NEW YORK - AUGUST 12: Pete Alonso #20 of the New York Mets tosses his bat after hitting a solo home run during the sixth inning of the game against the Atlanta Braves... NEW YORK, NEW YORK - AUGUST 12: Pete Alonso #20 of the New York Mets tosses his bat after hitting a solo home run during the sixth inning of the game against the Atlanta Braves at Citi Field on August 12, 2025 in New York City. MoreAfter breaking the franchise home run record, Alonso put all the pressure on the team's front office, and also revealed how much longer he is planning to play if the team is interested in making him a Met for life. "I have a goal to play baseball until I'm through my age 40 season," Alonso said, per The Athletic's Tyler Kepner. "And for me, I'm gonna work hard and do that. And you know what? Business side, Steve (Cohen) and David (Stearns), they've got to come through." Alonso is 30 right now, which means he is trying to play at least through 2035. It's unlikely the Mets are going to give him a 10-year deal in free agency. However, the five-time All-Star has no plans of retiring soon. Alonso is already the home run king for the franchise. However, he could end up being one of the all-time best home run hitters in MLB history. If the Mets want to make sure he only ever wears their uniform, it may take multiple long-term contracts.
