Could Pete Alonso's return to Queens have been any more impressive? After an emotional first game back at Citi Field on Monday and hitting his 300th career home run on Tuesday, Alonso went deep again on Wednesday night, leading the Orioles’ four-homer barrage in a 7-1 win over the Mets. Baltimore also completed a sweep of the three-game series. The O’s (75-78) remain alive in the race for the third American League Wild Card berth, even if their odds are long. They’re now 2 1/2 games behind the White Sox (77-75) for that spot, though they also need to pass both the Rangers (76-76) and Blue Jays (76-77). Alonso is doing everything he can to try to power the Orioles into the postseason. “I know that there were people excited for me to come back, but at the end of the day, there’s a job to do,” Alonso said. “We’re playing some really important baseball right now, and my focus -- even though there’s a lot going on externally and I appreciate all the support and I’m so very grateful for it -- is to stay centered and focus on winning baseball games, especially now \[in\
