Pete Alonso wouldn't take the bait from the Yankees legend after a big playoff win.
New York Mets' Pete Alonso tosses his bat as he watches his solo home run sail over the right field wall against the Philadelphia Phillies during the second inning of Game 3 of the National League baseball playoff series, Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2024, in New York. that moved the Mets to one win away from the NL Championship Series, Alonso joined the FOX Sports MLB crew, which includes former MLB stars Jeter, David Ortiz and Alex Rodriguez and host Kevin Burkhardt, for a post-game interview.
The response impressed Jeter, who recounted a postseason when the Yankees played the Oakland A’s — he couldn’t recall the year, but 2000 matches up — and the Yankees packed their bags even though they had a potential AL Division Series clincher at home. They lost Game 4 and then were forced to go to Oakland for a decisive Game 5, which they won.“Jeter’s trying to stir it up," Burkhardt said.
