NY Post
Donnie Stevenson wasn’t an imaginary hitting coaching after all. He was an actual person. Mets fans are probably familiar with him.His name is Pete Alonso.
According to The Athletic, Alonso dressed up as a new hitting coach prior to the team’s May 1 win over the Phillies and former teammate Zack Wheeler in Philadelphia. Alonso, dressed in a hat and sunglasses, attended the hitters’ meeting as a joke, and told his teammates to stop over-thinking.
SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
