What in the world is wrong with Pete Alonso and Jeff McNeil?
, halting a modest three-game winning streak and pushing them another few steps closer to postseason oblivion. Jose Quintana pitched fine in his Mets debut, two runs over five innings, but the bullpen did as the bullpen does, the offense did as the offense has done far too often this season, and the White Sox knocked off the Mets 6-2. Tough day all around for the Mets.In the midst of an impossibly tough season for the erstwhile dynamic duo.
“Overall I haven’t played well at all, and it’s not fun to not play well,” Alonso said. “There’s nothing wrong mechanically. I felt good today and it felt nice to get that hit, and I’m going to try to build off today.”Pete Alonso went 1-for-4 in the Mets’ loss to the White Sox on Thursday, driving in a run.He was referring to Alonso, but he could’ve been referring to both players. Alonso and McNeil burst on the scene together in 2019, the two of them All-Stars in their first full seasons.
It is also possible — maybe even likely — that Alonso simply decided to come back to soon from the injury he suffered in Atlanta on June 7, when he was plunked on the hand by the Braves’ Charlie Morton. The evidence is surely there: a .132 average with only four homers and a .299 slugging percentage .
