The New York Dies were hot Tuesday evening against the Braves of Atlanta – so much so that the Citi Field crew used all its pyro for the theaters of the circuit.

The dishes criticized six brave launchers in their 13-5 victory. Spencer Strider and Austin Cox were marked for three dingers each. Pete Alonso and Francisco Alvarez had two circuits each, Brandon Nimmo and Brett Baty contributing the rest.

After the sixth time circuit of the night, the dishes had to give fans the difficult news – “more pyro”.

“Due to too many Mets Home Runs, we unfortunately lacked fireworks for the night,” said a message on the Citi Field Videoboard. “We apologize for the drawback.”

The two Alonso circuits pushed it at the top of the list of all time of the organization. It has 28 circuits over the year and 254 all time. He passed Darryl Strawberry with the feat.

“As a child, you don’t really think it’s in the area of the possibility of being a home franchise leader,” said Alonso after the match. “You just want to arrive in the big leagues and give your best. And the dream is really a kind of opaque and unknown thing. You just want to get there and compete, play for a world series, play winning baseball.

“I mean, it’s a wild dream, to be honest, and it’s really special.”

The dishes shared a message from Strawberry on their social media platforms.

“You worked hard, you got up in New York pressure and you played well,” said Strawberry. “It’s well deserved. You are a local player. Again, congratulations and continue to succeed. All the best, my friend.”
