The vibes are good. They're up three to one as we're watching the highlight right now.

And Pete Alonzo with an opposite field laser over the right center field fence to make it five to one. And you could just sense like the crowd we had Raskona in here running the board yesterday. He was taking his son to the game. This is one of those moments. And Pete has become one of those guys, obviously. From, I mean, from the fan base

calling for him at the beginning of his career when he was down in Vegas and they didn't want to

call him up at the end of that season in 18, then he comes up and he's this just mammoth figure in

2019 his rookie season, 50 home runs as clutch as you could be, arguably his best season as

met that rookie season.

And from that moment on, it became quite clear the connection that Pete built with this

fan base, that Pete built with this team. They are his guy. And now in the off season,

all the drama about the contract, going back and forth, the owner who was there last night, who put out a tweet last night, who chose to be at this game last night against the Atlanta Braves to see this history to possibly take place and ultimately it did.

But all the common, him getting booed at Met Day and everything about bringing back beat, like all of this.

This was a moment the fan base has been craving. This is a moment that the fan base has been talking about for at least the last year. The idea that the greatest power hitter in the franchise's history completed that last night. And it's still kind of up in the air about his future as he's, you know, he's not under contract for next season. At least we don't think so. We all expect him to opt out. Like last night was one of those moments where you get to celebrate yours. You get to celebrate a guy that you love that you've been behind. Through the losing, through the winning, through the fun, through the sad times, through his home run derbies. Like everything. Pete Alonzo is the New York Mets in many ways, even though we think Lindor might end up being the captain. But like, he's the guy. And watching him last night hit that home run, seeing the crowd reaction, watching them can pound the braves. Like it was just, it was as good a night you could have for a New York Mets fan. Yeah, Pete Alonzo is like this younger generation's guy. He's the guy that they hope in years to come has his number 20 jersey retired up there and they get a Pete Alonzo day. You know, you talked about Amazing Day and how the fans kind of demanded that they bring him back. And it seems so far in the past, right, the off season where he didn't have any

offers. And there was talk about Vladdy Jr. being a med. And even opening day with Vladdy Jr.

coming to Queens and the fans applauding him and people thinking about, hey, you know, we can get

that guy. That guy's off the table. Like you just said, Pete Alonzo, that is their guy.

That is the polar bear.

That's the face of the franchise. And after the losing streak, after getting swept, coming home, the owner tweeting out that he's going to be there, that the team hadn't been playing good, but kind of, you know, rallying the troops, rallying the fan base, come out to city field, come see what happens tonight. Pete hit two home runs. even the first ball he hit kind of gave you the feeling like, hey, he's locked in tonight. It's going to happen. I just think that for the Met fan last night, Alvarez, two home runs. His boy Nimmo bailing them out. Of course, they give you that little moment of, you know, panic where Frank the tank, I'm sure, crashed out, where even, you know, Evan Roberts is tweeting about it, the Mep fans are tweeting about, like, you know, the Braves coming back. They give you that little bit of moment for the boo-birds to come out in the city field to not believe, but then Brandon Nimmo hits the three-run shot, and then the Mets absolutely poured on, and you wake up this morning feeling good, and you haven't been able to feel good. It's funny too because it's now the 12th and we keep going back to June 13th. So people could literally put this in a box of two months two months, two months. Well the next two months is the most important. Yeah. And you said it and last night,, yeah, huge win. All the stuff that will get into that.

We'll get into the bunt by Lindor, which I think is arguably the biggest play of the game to get on base there with two outs, followed by the walk and the three run shot. But last night was definitely a cleansing moment, right, the day off leading into it, met fans all over the place. This is where they get hot. This is where they turn it on against the lousy Atlanta Brave team.

They get the home run and it just set this thing off. Now, you mentioned the owner being there. We talked about it. And the future of Pete Alonzo. And I look at it. And I've been skeptical. I have been. I've been skeptical about the future of Pete Alonzo with the New York Metz. I felt that way last year. He had that down season where it really was the numbers weren't awful, but he was very unimpactful. Like he didn't have that typical Pete season. He didn't, like in the in the clutch, he was terrible up until he hits the home run against Devin Williams. And he has the good playoff run with the playoff pumpkin and all that. And leading into the off season. And it just felt like, like I wasn't sure. And I think there's a dynamic with the Mets right now

between the two guys who are running this, the two faces of what the Mets are right now.

The owner and Steve Cohen and the general manager and president of baseball operations,

David Stearns. And I still feel, and I still feel

that I am curious how David Stearns feels about Pete Alonzo as being a met for the rest of his career.
