New York Mets fans furious as Atlanta Braves fans cheer after Pete Alonso gets plunked and is removed from game: "Worst fans in the league"

New York Mets slugger Pete Alonso had some words for the Atlanta Braves Tuesday night after he hit a monster home run. He saw a hanging slider and got every piece of it. Afterward, Alonso was caught saying, &quot;Throw it again!&quot;The Atlanta fans didn't appreciate that, so they booed him as he stepped to the plate on Wednesday. Alonso then took a 97 mph fastball from veteran pitcher Charlie Morton to his left hand. It didn't look intentional, but it sure made the Braves fans happy in attendance.Barstool Baseball@StoolBaseballBraves fans erupt in cheers after Pete Alonso gets hit by a pitch and removed from the game2681120Braves fans erupt in cheers after Pete Alonso gets hit by a pitch and removed from the game https://t.co/3skxVNVnpcPete Alonso would later leave the game after being evaluated by the trainer.
