‘You’ve been a BASEBALL ABOMINATION!’ 😳 - Stephen A. sounds off on Mets fans | First Take

The Orioles and Pete Alonso were at Citi Field last night to face the Mets. Alonso had played his entire professional career as a Met until this season. He was beloved in New York and last night as the Orioles were down 3-2, that happened in the ninth inning with Alonso at the dish. Visitor at Citi Field launches that ball 414 feet for his 300th career home run to tie the game and the Mets faithful went absolutely wild. Here was yesterday's starting pitcher and Alonso's former teammate and there's his reaction. As the 2026 Mets I know we have definitely underperformed but you know we are the guys in here work their ass off every single day and you know to have that kind of reaction to an opposing player you know it could be anybody it's crazy you know I've again I've got nothing but respect for Pete but um yeah I've just never seen anything like that before um he's just not here so um I know everybody loves him he's a man but um yeah it's just he's not here so to see the uh the reaction from the fans like that um I don't know it's just just different. All right Shamanaya I don't know I think that the Mets faithful had every reason to stand up and cheer. Doggie what did you make of it? 100 percent what is he crazy it's September 16th the Mets have been awful they're one of the most disappointing teams in the sport and he's one of the reasons why they and they play the highest ticket prices in the world it was his 300th home run they love him in New York the game is 2-1 in the ninth whatever the score was one run game in the ninth inning hits the home run the Mets win who cares I mean it's typical Alonso based on his own runs against Milwaukee the Phillies in the playoffs two years ago I have no problem none whatsoever with the Met fan now here's the one thing I will say before I throw it to Stevie real quick with the Met fan they want to kill Stearns fire Stearns fire Stearns the director of player here's the guy you got to kill you got to kill Steve Cohen because it's Steve Cohen's money and it's Steve Cohen who made a big how do you do as Steve knows about his record hitting home run for the franchise last year if he wanted Alonso on his team he could have told Dave Dave you do you pick you pick all the relievers you want Alonso stays you have no problem with the money whatever he wants he stays he's Mr. Met I own a team he stays he bought Soto in didn't he he sure did and Stearns had nothing to do with that that was all that was all Cohen so the Met fan needs to direct a little of their ire towards Cohen as much as they do Steve didn't go and keep him one more year weren't there rumors of he had nowhere to go he had nowhere to go but Cohen was the one beating the drum to keep him there I think doggy is is too medicated over his shoulders that's what I think is going on right now I understand and I am not absolving Steve Cohen by any stretch of the imagination he is no George Steinbrenner God rest that wonderful man's soul one of the greatest owners of baseball history okay you don't let go of Peter Alonso and you defer to the baseball mind that you've got running your franchise you willing to cut the check but damn it we know that Stearns is running baseball operations what kind of damn decision is that let me tell you who Peter Alonso is okay Peter Alonso doggy 11 and this is since he gets this is since he debuted for the Mets in 2019 1160 games that's the amount of games that Peter Alonso has played played every game this year every game the last two years do you know where that ranks in the majors doggy it's probably one or two right number one wow in games played um 830 813 rbis what does that mean doggy that's top five number one wow more than Otani more than any of them number one and by the way 300 home runs do you know that's third in the majors behind Kyle Schwaber and Aaron Judge this is who the Mets let walk out the building who the hell do you think you are you're the Mets now my man Jeff and you know my boy Jeff in California is watching I'm the godfather to his children Nick Nicholas and Nicole love them to death how could you do that to your children that's what I tell them all the time how could you do how could you subject your children to the Mets I mean one Soto I'm hearing that the people in the DR have turned against him because he's making so much money and they're questioning or you know they're just jealous it's envy Juan Soto is a stud but made a stupid decision my brother you don't leave those pinstripes in the Bronx for the pinstripes in Queens you're paying for that not just nationally but internationally back in the DR you're messed up that's what they really mad at you about you don't leave the Yankees for the Mets okay and that's what he did the Mets are trash the Mets are an embarrassment you've got Steve Cohen with your billions of dollars and you've got the second highest payroll in Major League Baseball and you're this awful they haven't been relevant since week one of this season they've been trash how many 13 12 13 game losing streaks have they had they're horrible and I'm looking at my boy Jeff and I'm sitting there that I love you to death that's like a brother to me and that's my brother but he got he's got my god no it's a bad kind of orange it's stained the Mets stink that's what it is and Peter Alonso last night the Mets fans when you have a fan base that is cheering this dude and he smacks a home run to give him the lead and on top of it all they give him a standing ovation and a curtain call to a visiting team that with a player that was one stairs that just put him in a position to win the damn game which they ultimately won by the way you know that's bad that is an indictment against management as far as I'm concerned everybody needs to be cleaned out and then you got a player knowing they stinking up the joint all year coming out there talking about oh you know what we we work hard we work our ass off who cares you're getting paid you ain't getting paid to sit on your ass you ain't koala in it you ain't that's not who you are you're a player for the New York Mets okay the least you could do is work hard I don't want to hear this nonsense shut up the bottom line is y'all stink you've stunk all year you haven't produced since last May you've been a baseball abomination stirs needs to be gone Cohen his he should be ashamed of the job that he's done and former governor Chris Christie who consults for the New York Mets I really really think you should strongly consider disassociating yourself with the New York Mets because they're horrible they're clearly not listening because you've interviewed Christy he's a friend of mine I know him I know the man knows his baseball the Mets are trash probably because they ain't listening to him they need to listen to somebody they stink and I'm from Queens New York okay and every time I gotta drive by Citi Field there's a stench that we always complain about in East Rutherford New Jersey well it has now transitioned to Queens New York you smell a stench every time you're on a Grand Central Parkway driving by Citi Field and over this it made it so damn bad when we went when I went to the U.S. Open the other night the stench was hitting us even though we were enjoying a great match again with Tiafoe versus Shelton it was the stench from Citi Field and they weren't even playing that night they stink period shut up play better baseball and Steve Cohen fire your director of baseball operations and pay attention to the hard-working New York Mets fan base that spend their money patronizing your product you have robbed them the last year and a half of a product you stink period shut up start a break to make matters worse Pete Alonzo Pete Alonzo had beers with the guys that caught his home run ball he signed jersey he gave them tickets he's beloved he's sick to his stomach you know what he's going to make him better talking about my bear's neck coming up on first take
