The New York Mets activated first baseman Pete Alonso from the injured list before Sunday's 8-7 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals.
Alonso went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in his return from a bone bruise and sprain of his left wrist. He was hurt after being hit by a 96 mph fastball in a June 7 game against the Atlanta Braves. The Mets had expected Alonso to be out three to four weeks, but instead he was activated after the minimum 10 days.
"Happy that it responded well to treatment," Alonso said before Sunday's game.
