\n

BALTIMORE — Through the first 13 games of his Orioles career, Pete Alonso<\/a> hasn\u2019t quite been himself. He\u2019s not slugging home runs from the heart of the order. He\u2019s not hitting well enough. The Polar Bear isn\u2019t showing the level of production that landed him a five-year, $155 million contract<\/a> from Baltimore over the offseason.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Alonso is aware his play isn\u2019t meeting the lofty expectations set by everyone — himself, the team and the fans, who aren\u2019t seeing the guy they were so excited to watch. The 31-year-old isn\u2019t hiding from it, and he isn\u2019t making excuses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cYeah, it stinks, first couple weeks, not performing up to my standards,\u201d Alonso said after going 0-for-3 with a walk in the O\u2019s series-opening 6-3 loss to the Giants<\/a> at Camden Yards on Friday. \u201cYou can work hard, you can try, but that\u2019s not why I\u2019m here. I\u2019m here to win. And I expect more out of myself, and I know other people do as well. So it\u2019s frustrating.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Since knocking a single in a series-closing 8-3 win over Texas on April 1, Alonso has gone 3-for-32 (.094) over his past eight games.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cThis is not my standard. Results-wise, yeah, it\u2019s unacceptable for me, and I will be better. I know that. But yeah, it\u2019s not fun,\u201d Alonso said. \u201cI know, for me, if I\u2019m not producing in big spots with guys on base, it\u2019s not good for the team. I will be better. I feel bad. A lot of people believe in me, and I believe in myself, but I\u2019m not delivering results. I will. I just haven\u2019t. But I will.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Alonso had multiple opportunities to come through in key situations from the cleanup hole during the opener vs. San Francisco.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Adley Rutschman hit a two-out double in a scoreless game during the bottom of the first inning, putting Alonso in an early position to drive in a run against San Francisco right-hander Landen Roupp. But Alonso struck out looking after getting into a 3-0 count, watching the next three pitches get called for strikes low in the zone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

With the Orioles trailing 1-0 in the third, Alonso again came to the plate with two outs. Baltimore had runners on second and third after Rutschman knocked his second double. But Alonso struck out swinging, whiffing on a 76.7 mph curveball from Roupp that was below the zone.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Alonso grounded out to second base to end the fifth (when Rutschman was on first after a two-out single) and later drew a two-out walk in the eighth, when the O\u2019s were behind 6-1.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cFirst at-bat, I thought I did a good job of laying off some pitcher\u2019s pitches, and he got me. And then, I got over-aggressive my next two at-bats, I let that seep into my next two at-bats, which for me, it\u2019s unacceptable,\u201d Alonso said. \u201cI wish I could have had some better at-bats in those spots. I just need to be better.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Manager Craig Albernaz knows Alonso\u2019s struggles aren\u2019t from a lack of preparation. The eight-year MLB veteran — who is a five-time All-Star and 2025 National League Silver Slugger Award winner with 265 career home runs on his ledger — is trying his best to get out of the rut.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cWith any hitter, when they’re in a good spot, they’re kind of just see ball, hit ball, and just be an athlete in there,\u201d Albernaz said. \u201cIt looks like he’s trying to handle too much as far as the prep in his approach, which is not always a bad thing. But also, it’s like he’s kind of searching a little bit on that end. It’s not his swing. It’s just more of the pitches to hit and what he’s taking and then what he’s swinging at.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Alonso isn\u2019t the only underproducing hitter in an Orioles lineup that is averaging 3.7 runs per game and has been held to two or fewer runs seven times during a 6-7 start. In fact, two of the only players off to strong starts are Gunnar Henderson and Taylor Ward.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Henderson slugged a two-run homer in the ninth, having now accounted for five of Baltimore\u2019s nine home runs. Meanwhile, Ward hit another double, becoming the first player since at least 1900 to hit 10 doubles over his first 13 games with a team (per the Elias Sports Bureau).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Much like the O\u2019s belief in themselves to get going as a unit, they\u2019re confident Alonso will be himself soon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think anybody\u2019s worried about Pete,\u201d right-hander Shane Baz said. \u201cHe\u2019ll be just fine.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\u201cEverybody goes through that sometimes, even the best players in the game — which, I believe he is one of the best players in the game,\u201d catcher Samuel Basallo said via team interpreter Brandon Quinones. \u201cIt\u2019s just a matter of days until he gets it going here soon, and at the end of the season, we’ll be looking at him as one of the best players.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
