Mets fans, mark your calendars! The team continues its six-game road trip on Tuesday with a compelling pitching matchup on the horizon. Taking the mound for New York will be right-hander Nolan McLean (0-1), who is looking to bounce back after a tough-luck outing where the bullpen couldn't hold his quality start.
He'll have a significant challenge facing him, as the Mets' lineup must contend with Dodgers ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto (2-1), one of the premier pitchers in the game today. This duel promises to be a key test for the Mets early in the season.
As we anticipate the power needed to solve Yamamoto, it's a perfect time to celebrate the Mets' own legacy of sluggers. The franchise's all-time home run leaderboard is a who's who of fan favorites, from current stars to legendary Hall of Famers.
Topping the list is the Polar Bear himself, Pete Alonso, who leads all Mets with 264 career homers. He's followed by iconic captain David Wright (242) and switch-hitting stalwart Howard Johnson (192). Recent inductee Carlos Beltran sits at No. 7 with 149, while current shortstop Francisco Lindor, with 141 and counting, is already climbing the ranks. This history of power provides the blueprint for the offensive fireworks needed in every game.
