Mets Makes Big Pete Alonso Announcement on Sunday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. It has been an exciting start to the 2025 season for the New York Mets. On Sunday, the team entered the game riding a two-game winning streak and looking to complete a sweep of the Colorado Rockies.

In the eighth inning of the Mets' game against the Rockies, Alonso hit his 243rd career home run. With this home run, the Florida native has surpassed the Mets' former long-time third baseman David Wright for the second-most home runs in franchise history. Only Darryl Strawberry (252 home runs) has more.

Shortstop Francisco Lindor's broken toe is healing fast enough that he may soon be back in the lineup for the New York Mets. Possibly even this weekend. Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said before Friday's game against Colorado that Lindor did some running and went through some drills in the cage.

Pinch-hitter Francisco Lindor, broken toe and all, hit a go-ahead two-run double in the ninth inning and the Mets beat the Rockies 4-2 on Friday night.

Francisco Lindor participated in pregame drills Friday, but the discomfort in his right foot was enough to keep him removed from the Mets’ starting lineup for a second straight game. The shortstop was diagnosed with a broken right pinky toe after he was hit by a pitch leading off Wednesday against the Dodgers.
