Pete Alonso’s ridiculous tear at the plate continued in a Yankee Stadium rout.

Alonso hits two more HRs in 10-2 Orioles win over Yanks

Pete Alonso continued his stellar performance for the Baltimore Orioles, driving two home runs in a 10-2 victory over the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium. This marked Alonso's 43rd home run of the season, leading the league in home runs. In the third inning, Alonso hit a 407-foot shot into the left-field seats, extending his AL-leading RBI count to 112.

In the fourth inning, the Orioles capitalized on a loaded bases situation, with Christian Franklin and Carlos Narváez both reaching base for the first time in 132 and 133 plate appearances, respectively. Narváez failed to drive in a run, posting zero RBIs with the Orioles this season. In the sixth inning, Jeremiah Jackson hit a career grand slam, providing another significant boost to the Orioles' lead.

A notable highlight was Jackson's inside-the-park homer in the sixth inning, signaling the Orioles' dominance. The Orioles' bullpen delivered solid relief work, with Albert Suárez pitching four scoreless innings despite a nosebleed issue. Petey Rogers had an impressive outing, allowing only one run over four innings, but was relieved after 55 pitches, despite exhibiting no signs of fatigue. The Orioles' win solidified their weekend performance, marking a notable start to the season.
