I’m not a Mets fan, but I can certainly mine the glory.

He could be a free agent after this year and could be nearing his final game as a New York Met superstar. pete alonso He had the perfect iconic moment to represent the franchise era, earning spectacular glory in the playoffs and sending his team to the National League Division Series.

When he arrived in the bottom of the ninth inning of Game 3 of the National League Wild Card Series, the spotlight he had dreamed of since childhood was on him. The scenario was this: one out, two runners on base, New York’s offense was crippled all night, and they lost 2-0 and were on the verge of being eliminated from the postseason. Yes, this is what kids dream about in their backyards, and Alonso said in his post-match interview that he did the same.

And he lived it up when the first baseman hit a three-run home run to give his “Amazing” Mets a completely clutch 3-2 lead. New York continued to win, but 4-2Thursday night’s contest puts both the campaign on the line and a berth to the NLDS against the Philadelphia Phillies.

Mets fans, enjoy! And I’m not worried about Petey leaving with the same bankroll as owner Steve Cohen. I love that person.
