Alonso went 2-for-4 with a double and a two-run home run in Sunday's loss to Atlanta.

His eighth-inning shot off Jimmy Herget ended a combined shutout bid for the Atlanta staff, but it was the only offense the Mets could muster. Alonso is up to 21 homers on the season, but he's struggling to supply consistent production -- through 24 games in July he's slashing just .239/.300/.424 with nine RBI.
