Mets Star Pete Alonso Suffers Wrist Injury, Avoids Serious Harm
- Pete Alonso left Wednesday's Mets-Braves game after being hit in the left wrist by a pitch from Charlie Morton.
- X-rays were negative, and Alonso is considered day-to-day with a wrist contusion, though further imaging is scheduled.
- The injury to Alonso, who leads MLB in home runs, initially appeared serious but seems to have been avoided.
- The Mets lineup has struggled this season and can ill afford to lose Alonso for an extended period.
- The incident came shortly after Alonso was booed by Braves fans for shouting at pitcher Bryce Elder, though Alonso said the hit by pitch was unintentional.
