Pete Alonso is on track to be the National League Rookie of the Year if he can stay healthy. The rookie first baseman is a sensation for the New York Mets and is quickly becoming one of the biggest athletes in New York.
On Friday, Alonso made one lucky fan’s dreams come true by inviting him on the field to have a catch.
