Pete Alonso hit the 40-homer milestone again with his third-inning blast in the Mets’ 6-3 win over the Mariners on Sunday.

The two-run shot got Alonso to the 40-home run mark for the third time of his career and he became just the fifth player in MLB history to have three 40-home run seasons in the first five seasons of his career.

Ralph Kiner, Ryan Howard, Albert Pujols and Eddie Matthews are the others.

Alonso hit 53 home runs as a rookie in 2019 and had 40 a year ago.

Since Alonso entered the league, only he, Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout of the Angels have had multiple 40-homer seasons. 

And Alonso’s 186 homers are the most in the majors since 2019.
