The New York Mets celebrated a thrilling 4-2 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers, clinching a spot in the NLDS, largely thanks to Pete Alonso's dramatic three-run homer. Alonso, who might be facing free agency soon, had previously experienced a lack of postseason celebrations, making this moment particularly special for him. Manager Carlos Mendoza, in his first playoff series win, emphasized the importance of fun and belief in their abilities. The Mets had faced elimination just a day prior after a disappointing loss in Game 2, but their resilience shone through in Game 3. Alonso's performance, marked by his confidence despite recent slumps, highlights the unpredictable nature of playoff baseball. The Mets' journey has been tumultuous, yet their determination has brought them into a celebratory moment that Alonso had long awaited.
