Yankees broadcaster called out Mets fans for their recent outburst involving Juan Soto. Here’s all you need to know.

The Juan Soto the New York Mets expected when they gave him the richest contract in sports history finally appeared in his purest form Wednesday night at Dodger Stadium by stealing the show without even putting the ball in play.

The Mets’ front office was very hesitant to give homegrown star Pete Alonso a long-term deal in the offseason. They feared that at 30, his best days were behind him. It is why they risked him talking to rival clubs in free agency. However, calling his bluff worked, and they were able to re-sign him on a team-friendly two-year deal.

He felt he needed a change. “I was in Southern California my whole life. It’s nice to get out and experience something new.”

Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo has been spotted using a sledgehammer in the on-deck circle over the past two games.

Pete Alonso and the New York Mets will face Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday at Dodger Stadium in the second game of their four-game series.
