In a postgame interview, Alonso pointed out that this year’s squad already shares that never-say-die attitude that led last year’s Mets to a surprise NLCS appearance. He emphasized that even if they’re behind, they always believe they can turn it around. “This is a talented team, and we’re never out of any game,” Alonso said. “That’s just the character of this group. We don’t give up until the final out.”
The Mets are starting to pick up steam. After their extra-innings win over the Marlins, Pete Alonso highlighted one thing the team has going for it this season—an unshakable fighting spirit. Alonso smacked a clutch three-run homer in the top of the eighth to tie the game at 4-4. The Mets went on to score two more in the 11th to win 6-5. After a rough start, it looks like New York is finding its rhythm as they chase a championship.
