Jerry Seinfeld gets signed bat from Mets' rookie Pete Alonso on 'Seinfeld Night'
NEW YORK — Even a regifter would want to keep this.
Rookie slugger Pete Alonso presented lifelong Mets’ fan Jerry Seinfeld with a signed bat on Friday night.
“You can take this and put it in a safe place or take BP with it,” Alonso told Seinfeld.
Alonso, who made the National League All-Star team after recording 28 homers, will appear in the Home Run Derby on Monday night at Progressive Field.
