BALTIMORE — Pete Alonso has emerged as a key player for the Orioles, hitting his 29th homer this season and helping the team contend for a wild-card spot after a slow start. Despite his past with the Mets, he expresses no resentment towards them and focuses on his commitment to his new team. Alonso credits his performance to settling into his new environment and adapting to fatherhood. With the Orioles just a game out of a playoff position, he remains optimistic about the team’s prospects.
