NEW YORK -- Mets star Pete Alonso appeared to escape injury after getting hit on the right hand by a 93 mph fastball from Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher James Paxton.

Alonso was hit on the middle knuckle Wednesday and left the game. He said an X-ray and bone scan on Wednesday night and an MRI on Thursday didn't detect any breaks.

"I really feel like I got lucky and dodged a bullet, so I'm just really happy that it's just going to be day to day," Alonso said Thursday.
