Pete Alonso has put the Mets on his back so often in his rookie season.
But with the Mets’ playoff chances running out of time, the first baseman has entered a mini-funk at an inopportune stretch. Alonso went 0-for-4 in Sunday’s 3-2 loss to the Dodgers, dropping to 0-for-his-last-20 since clubbing a pair of homers last Monday.
“I don’t think it’s ever a good time, to be honest with you,” Alonso said. “It’s been a rough week, but all I can continue to do is keep working and try to get better. Keep on trying to win, because at the end of the day, that’s what it’s all about.
