Pete Alonso spoke out about his lackluster Home Run Derby outing on Monday.
After winning the event in 2019 and 2021, Alonso was looking to join baseball legend Ken Griffey Jr. as the only other three-time Home Run Derby champion in MLB history.The “Polar Bear” was bounced from the competition after one round, hitting 12 home runs. The only player who hit less than Alonso was Baltimore Orioles’ sensation Gunnar Henderson, who finished the contest with 11 big flies.Alonso spoke with the media after his performance.
The Home Run Derby’s color commentators Eduardo Perez and Todd Frazier noted that Jauss was throwing the ball especially soft to Alonso and that many of the pitches were jamming the slugger. Although Alonso made it clear that Monday’s performance won’t stop him from competing in the event again. “This is an event that I’ve really admired since I was a kid, so I’m basically doing it for my seven or eight-year-old self,” he said,. “It’s a blessing to be out here and to perform, it’s a super fun event and I love competing in it, so yeah there’s definitely more in there.”
