CLEVELAND -- Pete Alonso had a pretty good night. A fun night in the middle of what he called a fantasy season so far. After all, the rookie first baseman for the New York Mets hit three walk-off homers to win the 2019 Home Run Derby.
In the first round, matched up against hometown hero Carlos Santana of the Indians, Alonso hit his 14th home run with one second left on the clock, eliminating Santana, earning a chest bump from his cousin Derek Morgan, his pitcher for the evening, and receiving a chorus of boos from Cleveland fans, disappointed in Santana's early exit.
