NEW YORK -- The Playoff Pumpkin is alive and well.
Pete Alonso's pumpkin, first purchased in Wisconsin when the New York Mets were playing the Milwaukee Brewers in a wild-card series, currently sits in his locker at Citi Field. It is a reminder not only of Alonso's ninth-inning home run off Brewers closer Devin Williams that saved the Mets' season, but of all the good fortune that has gone the Mets' way so far in October.
Indeed, Alonso seems a little possessive about his prized gourd.
