Pete Alonso coming up big for Mets in more ways than usual

The spring of Pete Alonso continued Tuesday night, as the sizzling first baseman added another key run-scoring double in a 5-1 win over the Phillies at Citi Field.

And he added some excellent work with his glove — particularly in the top of the second, when Alonso picked a tough throw from Mark Vientos to prevent a run from scoring.

Afterward, Carlos Mendoza called Alonso “probably the best in the game” at scooping balls in the dirt at first base.
