Before Pete Alonso set the rookie record with 53 homers in 2019, there was a competition at first base for the Mets between Alonso and Dom Smith. Smith was and still is a much better fielder than Pete but could not take enough advantage of the chances he had with the Mets. A player this Met fan still roots for!
Beyond his record start for the franchise, Joey Wiemer tied Carlos Delgado's all=time mark by getting on base 10 consecutive times with two more hits against the Phillies.
Dan Schlossberg always has good stuff. He is a pleasure to read.
