BREAKING NEWS: Pete Alonso Faces Doping Accusations from Cardinals Fans After 9–3 Game — His Response Says It All
In a shocking turn following the New York Mets’ 9–3 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals, superstar slugger Pete Alonso has come under fire — not from the league, but from Cardinals fans, who took to social media with explosive accusations of doping after his dominant performance.
Fan Outrage After Alonso’s Big Night
Alonso, who went 3-for-4 with two home runs and five RBIs in the game, was instantly trending — not only for his performance, but because of the growing wave of Cardinals supporters who claimed his display was “unnatural” and “suspicious.”
Hashtags like #TestAlonso and #MetsCheatingAgain began surfacing on Twitter/X just hours after the final pitch.
“There’s no way a guy crushes like that without help,” one fan posted.
“He’s got to be juicing. MLB needs to step in,” another added.
Pete Alonso Responds with Class and Clarity
Rather than ignore the storm, Alonso addressed the controversy head-on during the post-game press conference:
“I get it. When you hit like I did tonight, people want to question it. But let me be clear — I’ve never touched anything illegal. I work hard, I train clean, and I respect the game.”
He added a subtle jab at his critics, saying:
“It’s easier to accuse than accept defeat.”
Mets Back Their Slugger
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza stood firmly behind Alonso, calling the accusations “absurd” and “disrespectful.”
“Pete’s one of the hardest-working players I’ve ever seen. What he did tonight was pure skill and preparation — not drugs.”
No formal complaint or investigation has been announced by Major League Baseball, and Alonso remains in good standing under the league’s drug testing policies.
