Kyle Tucker and Pete Alonso were opponents earlier this week, but they’re looking forward to uniting for Team USA in the World Baseball Classic.
PORT ST. LUCIE — Kyle Tucker and Pete Alonso were opponents earlier this week, but they already have begun looking forward to next week, when they will unite for Team USA in the World Baseball Classic.
“I pretty much kept up with [Alonso] after high school,” Tucker said. “He’s in the headlines every other day now, especially being here with the Mets, but he was one of the best players in college, back at Florida, and he is one of the best players now, so you see a lot of stuff with him in the news and stuff because he is doing so well, but with his work ethic he’s definitely earned it.
“I get to reunite with my high school teammate and we get to represent our country,” Alonso said. “To go with Jeff, Otto and Brooks … and to play with Paul Goldschmidt, there’s not really a scenario where me and him would be on the same team, but to be able to actually be on the same squad and working toward the same goal, to me that is exciting and special because there is no real scenario where that could happen.
“I got to play against Trout last year, so that was the first time I saw him play live, on the same field as him,” McNeil said. “It’s going to be cool to be teammates with him and watch him up close.”
