Pete Alonso goes 4-in-5 with a circuit but the dishes lose against the tutors in the extras
The polar bear is two bombs to become the King of Mets Home Run.
N ° 251 brought the dishes back to two points after equalizing the Cleveland Guardians Monday evening to Citi Field. A night of 4 for 5 with four produced points helped the dishes to go from five to two, to lower one, and triggered the rally which equaled the match.
But after a valiant return effort, Pete Alonso struck with the bases loaded at the bottom of the ninth, and an error of the third Brett Baty base player at the top of the 10th gave the Guardians at the top. The dishes dropped from 7-6 in 10 rounds to start the series, their sixth defeat in seven trials.
“It’s a perfect night for Pete to the last in the stick,” said manager Carlos Mendoza.
At 63-50, they are now 1.5 match behind the Philadelphia phillies in the NL East.
“It was a good team return,” said Alonso. “Obviously, we did not obtain victory, but there are a lot of positive points.”
The Alonso three -point circuit came at the bottom of the sixth, just after the left -hander Sean Manaea imploded for five points at the top of the Channel. With runners in the corners, Slade Cecconi threw a lead on the first throw of the bat. The ball has focused on the field of the center right, with any Citi Field on their feet and waving their hands, as if they could push the ball to the fence themselves.
He was just carrying enough to enter the seats, 388 feet to reduce the deficit to 5-3.
Polar power continued at the bottom of the eighth. Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto distinguished the right hunter Hunter Gaddis to leave, again putting runners in the corners without withdrawal for Alonso. This time, everything he needed was a balloon in play. A training line on the left side did the trick, and Lindor returned easily to the house to do it 5-4.
Jeff McNeil Off Gaddis’ single has loaded the basics, and Soto scored on a sacrificial fly from Mark comes to equalize the game.
“We continued to pass the stick,” said Alonso. “Each guy just seemed to continue doing it to the next guy, and everyone just had a lot of quality bats. So when you are like that as a team, collectively, it’s great.”
The Guardians had a runner in third row at the top of the ninth, but closer to Edwin Diaz worked around him to keep the game equally.
The right-hander Cade Smith (4-4) loaded the bases with only one to raise Alonso at the bottom of the ninth with a withdrawal. He was ready for heroism, but he withdrew. McNeil has aligned a right to Gabriel Arias at the Cop, leaving the basics loaded and the game on a par.
“You feel good in your chances in this situation with [Alonso] Driving the ball into the outside field or putting the ball into play, “said Mendoza.” They threw fast bullets by him there and they had it, but it was a pretty good night overall for Pete. “”
The newly acquired right-handed Ryan Helsley (3-2) intentionally market Jose Ramirez during the next round, and David Fry removed one to the third side of the base. Baty aligned him on the jump and tried to turn a double game, but threw him right in front of Lindor, allowing the automatic runner to mark and ramire end in third place, where he was able to mark the winner of the game on a deep fly towards the right field by Arias.
“I just have to make a better launch on this game,” said Baty. “The blow was somehow in the air, so I knew that the runners were going to have a difficult reading on this subject just because he went directly to the air. Then, I had it on a jump. I have to make a better throw than that.”
However, the dishes liked the fight they showed and showed throughout the season.
“To be honest, it would be more frustrating if we did nothing, if we just sort of lying there, and if they have excluded us, or if we have not really scored so many points,” said Alonso. “So I think it would be more frustrating in this way.”
Faced with order, the third time for the first time turned out to be difficult for Manaea. After having fought against Cecconi for five goalless rounds, a simple and successful striker at the top of the sixth put it in a jam. Steven Kwan scored on a bag of bag, and Fry and Carlos Santana each hit the simple to do it 2-0, Cleveland (57-55). Arias Teed Off on a change of 0-1 for a three-point circuit to do it 5-0.
Nolan Jones withdrew the second withdrawal, but a simple from Rocchio put an end to the night of Manaea after five points deserved in 5 2/3 sleeves. The left -handed Brooks Raley entered the third withdrawal.
Cecconi made six rounds, granting three points (two deserved) on four strokes, walking one and withdrawing six.
