“#Mets’ Pete Alonso homers twice in Subway Series<\/a> doubleheader<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

Michael Conforto app<\/a>roached Pete Alonso with a message from the bench before the Mets first baseman led off the seventh inning in Game<\/a> 1 of Sunday\u2019s doubleheader.<\/p>\n

Hitting coach Hugh Quattlebaum relayed to Conforto a reminder for Alonso to keep Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman in the strike zone, not allowing him to \u201cspray\u201d his pitches. Already in the game, Alonso had just missed a homer in the first inning and stranded four runners on base over his next two plate appearances.<\/p>\n

Alonso fell behind 1-2 in the count to Chapman before smashing a slider into the left-field bullpen to tie it. Before the inning was over the Mets had scored six runs, which carried them to a 10-5 victory in The Bronx.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like I\u2019ve had a lot of quality at-bats and feel like I\u2019ve been right on some pitches,\u201d said Alonso, whose blast in the nightcap, a 4-2 Mets loss, gave him four homers on the road trip<\/a>. \u201cYou don\u2019t feel like you\u2019re at your best every at-bat, but I feel I\u2019ve made a lot of good passes. In Atlanta [the previous series], I made a lot of hard contact.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Mets were just beginning their torment of the struggling Chapman. Conforto was drilled by a pitch following the Alonso homer and Jeff McNeil walked. Chapman was removed, and both runs scored on Jose Peraza\u2019s double against Lucas Luetge after Kevin Pillar had singled to load the bases. Peraza was awarded the double after a fan had reached over the left-field fence to catch the ball.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve just been a really resilient bunch,\u201d Alonso said. \u201cWe have a really good group of core players and over the past couple of years we\u2019ve had new guys come along and I feel the product on the field this year, every single guy isn\u2019t only pulling for each other, when they are out there in the box they are gritty and they are grinders.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alonso was asked about the significance of such a comeback occurring in the Subway Series.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is really cool having it here and, yes, the crosstown rivalry,\u201d Alonso said. \u201cIt was really amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tomas Nido, Brandon Nimmo and Francisco Lindor each delivered an RBI single in the fourth as the Mets rallied to tie it 4-4 against Gerrit Cole.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re down 4-1 at one point and we\u2019re facing one of the best pitchers in the game,\u201d manager Luis Rojas said. \u201cAnd the guys are in the dugout grinding and shouting and pulling for each other. The resiliency here is definitely something special. I thought we had some of that last year, but this year is definitely even better.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
