The New York Mets opened the work week tied with the L.A. Dodgers for the NL’s best winning percentage (.617), but three issues continue to pester them.
New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso caught flak from baseball fans on Monday after he appeared to celebrate making a throw to end an inning against the Boston Red Sox.
Boston led 3-1 in the bottom of the sixth when New York pitcher Kodai Senga got batter David Hamilton to hit a grounder to the first base side. Alonso fielded the ball and tossed it to Senga for the out. Alonso moved his hips in celebration for completing the out.
He had a similar issue in Sunday night’s game against the New York Yankees when he completely missed throwing a ball to home plate, which allowed a runner to score. The Mets lost that game against the Yankees and Monday’s game against the Red Sox.
"I messed it up," Alonso said after the loss to the Yankees, via The Athletic. "I just made an awful throw. That whole inning, this game, is on me. This one’s 100% on me."
Alonso was 1-for-3 against Boston.
He is hitting .301 with an OPS of .964 and has nine home runs on the season. New York got off to a hot start, but the struggles are starting to come to light even as the team is tied for first in the National League East with a 29-19 record.
The team’s loss against the Red Sox dropped them to 8-9 in May. New York only lost eight games in April. The Mets have lost four out of their last five going back to last week’s series finale against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
The Maine Coast Fisherman’s Association praised Jordon Hudson for her advocacy during the Miss Maine USA pageant earlier this month.
Support for Maine fishermen appeared to be close to Hudson’s heart. She has championed their cause, not only in the pageant, but also thanked Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, and the Trump administration for its renegotiation of the Maine Sea Grant funding.
"Advocating for Maine’s commercial fisherman takes many forms, and sometimes it walks across a stage in heels wearing a bikini," the Maine Coast Fishermen’s Association wrote on its Instagram Stories on Monday. "Jordon Hudson is helping shine a spotlight on Maine fishing communities in ways we never imagined, from the stage to the working waterfront.
"We’re grateful for voices like Jordon’s that remind us advocacy doesn’t always look the same, but it always matters. Together, we persevere."
Hudson was asked during the Miss Maine USA pageant a moment in life she would want to go back to. She said she wished she could be transported back to her family’s fishing boat.
"I think about this often because there’s a mass exodus for fishermen occurring in the rural areas of Maine, and I don’t want to see more fishermen leave this place," she said, via Mass Live. "As your next Miss Maine USA, I would make a point to go to communities … to go into the government and advocate for these people so that they don’t have to think about these memories as a past moment."
Hudson’s parents owned a fishing business, Frenchman’s Bay Fisheries, in Maine. However, after the area they used to fish, Taunton Bay, was closed off to fishing by the state in 2000, their business eventually went bankrupt years later.
Her family’s ship reportedly suffered damage and couldn’t afford repairs. The family attempted to lobby the state and local legislatures to ease up on regulations that impeded the fishing industry, and eventually the closure of their business.
The family eventually moved to Massachusetts.
