Ronald Blum AP baseball writer

DENVER — Pete Alonso danced to his second straight Home Run Derby title, besting Shohei Ohtani, Trey Mancini and Juan Soto on a night of re- cord long balls in the thin Rocky Mountain air of Coors Field. The New York Mets first baseman hit 74 total home runs and beat Mancini 23-22 in the final round Monday, joining Ken Griffey Jr. (1998-99) and Yoenis Céspedes (2013-14) in winning consecutive titles. Batting second, Alonso trailed 22-17 after the first two minutes of the final round, then hit six homers on six swings over the first 28 seconds of his final minute. Mancini, who returned this season from cancer treatment, was the sentimental favorite, while Alonso was the most ani- mated of the eight sluggers as the longball competition re- turned after a one-year absence caused by the coronavirus pandemic. With custom bats in the Mets’ royal blue and orange, and matching shoes and batting gloves, Alonso was a human bobblehead, nodding on beat in the batter’s box as he stepped out and danced. He motioned with his arms to whip up fans during a timeout. New York’s 26-year-old first baseman has a chance to match Griffey, who also win in 1994, as the only three-time winner. Alonso hit a first-round re- cord 35 dingers, seven more than Josh Hamilton in 2008 at the original Yankee Stadium, and topped Kansas City’s Salva- dor Pérez with 27. Alonso, bat- ting second, beat Soto 16-15 in the second round. Alonso’s lon- gest drive of the night traveled 514 feet. Mancini missed the 2020 sea- son while undergoing chemo- therapy for stage 3 colon cancer, treatment he finished last Sept. 21 at Johns Hopkins Hospital. The 29-year-old Baltimore Ori- oles first baseman hit .256 with 16 homers and 55 RBIs going into the All-Star break. His on- cologist, Dr. Nilo Azad, threw out the ceremonial first pitch at Associated Press Camden Yards before the National League’s Pete Alonso, of the New York Mets, cheers during the first round of the MLB All Star baseball Home Run Derby, See DERBY/Page B3 Monday, July 12, in Denver.

TAMPA — Captain Steven Stamkos wore a T-shirt bearing the message “BACK TO BOAT” and setting the tone for another signature Champa Bay celebration. The back-to-back Stanley Cup champion Tampa Bay Lightning were toasted with a boat parade on the Hillsborough River for the second time in 10 months, with thousands of fans no longer burdened by COVID-19 restric- tions gathering downtown to join the fun. The scene — five days after the Lightning closed out a five- game Stanley Cup Final win over the Montreal Canadiens — hardly resembled the riverfront gathering organized after the team won last year’s title while playing in empty arenas because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The first Italy team to win the European Cham- pionship in 53 years knew it was in for an exhilarat- ing day when it arrived at Rome’s Leonardo da Vinci Airport at dawn from Lon- don to be welcomed by a banner on the tarmac reading, “Grazie Azzurri.” To rousing cheers from airport workers, captain Giorgio Chiellini pumped his fist in the air, and coach Roberto Mancini hoisted the trophy high over their heads. There was even a cheer for de- fender Leonardo Spinaz- zola, as he hopped down the steps on one foot, his other in a cast from an
