  "account": "Pete Alonso led the American League with 43 home runs, including a 471-foot blast that cleared the left field bleachers. The Baltimore Orioles defeated the New York Yankees 10-2 in the doubleheader opener. Dylan Beavers hit his first career grand slam, while Jeremiah Jackson connected for an inside-the-park homer. Alonso also became the first Oriole since Mark Trumbo in 2016 with seven straight hits that were homers. His 113 RBIs tied St. Louis’ Alec Burleson for the most in the big leagues and the most by an Oriole since 2015. Alonso's performance marked his 29th multi-homer game and third this season. Beavers hit a 471-foot drive into the right-field seats for a 7-0 lead. Jeremiah Jackson added Baltimore's second inside-the-park homer this year. Trevor Rogers pitched four innings for the Orioles, allowing one run and five hits. Baltimore starter Albert Suárez (3-0) pitched four innings and earned the win.",
