After winning the Home Run Derby, stroking more homers than any other rookie in major league history and still missing the playoffs, Pete Alonso, the Met known to fans as Polar Bear, retreated from the city into hibernation in October.
One of his first stops was Yellowstone National Park. He pitched a tent and camped with his fiancée, Haley Walsh, before going home to Florida, where he went fishing. Last week, he packed his rifle and flew to Colorado, where he went on a dream hunt. His mother, Michelle Alonso, recognized his need to recharge.
