I think our lineup now as a whole is functioning at a real high level and as we envisioned. Pete has been right in the middle of it all since Day 1. He's really taken his offensive game to another level, and it's been fun to see.'

Advertisement On Friday the 13th, the Mets began play as the only MLB team with four players who had at least 13 homers (Alonso, Brandon Nimmo, Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto).
