New York Mets first baseman took responsibility for Sunday’s loss, pointing to his error in the eighth inning, where they eventually succumbed by a score of 8-2. For the Dominican, it was a terrible weekend against the New York Yankees, as he was quiet with the bat, going 10-1 during the series.
The play Pete Alonso was referring to was when Jorbit Vivas (Yankees) batted in his direction with runners on base. The Dominican threw the ball to catcher Francisco Alvarez, but his throw went way over, allowing the New York Yankees to walk off the game and get the win. The incident allowed Jasson Dominguez to score and start the winning rally for the Bronx.

I messed up. I made a terrible pitch. That whole inning, this game, is my fault. After that pitch, it got away from me. They had some really good at-bats. This one’s on me. It’s horrible.
After this blunder, Cody Bellinger took it upon himself to highlight Pete Alonso’s error with the Grand Slam that led them to victory at Yankee Stadium.
