Soto At Home In Polar Bear's House: Big Bats Power Mets In 'storybook' Citi Field Opener

Juan Soto's home debut with the New York Mets was a huge success.

Citi Field is still Pete Alonso's house, though.

Alonso hit an early two-run homer, Soto added an RBI double and the New York Mets beat the Toronto Blue Jays 5-0 on Friday behind the pair of power hitters they signed in free agency last offseason.

"I don't think it could have gone any better," Alonso said. "People were super stoked. The energy was super high the entire game in the ballpark. You couldn't write up a better start to the home opener."

With the Mets back from a 3-3 trip to start the season, fans were fired up for Soto's first home game since joining the team in December by agreeing to a record 765 million, 15-year contract.
