Pete Alonso finally did it. The Mets first baseman hit his 53rd home run to pass Aaron Judge and become the greatest rookie home run hitter of all time. It caps off an amazing season and gives the Mets something to look forward to as they move into 2020.
The most homers EVER by a rookie.
The home run was off Mike Foltynewicz and was typical of the year Alonso has put together. It was a long, booming home run to right center field and would have cleared the fences of the old Citi Field.
