Mets star Pete Alonso is lucky to be alive after a devastating car accident

Mets star Pete Alonso was involved in a “brutal” car accident in Florida on Sunday near the Mets spring training facility, in which his car rolled over several times.

Alonso said the driver ran a red light and crashed into him, causing the frightening accident. He said he was “lucky to be alive” and thanked his wife for her support.

“(Sunday) was a death experience,” Alonso told reporters. “For me, I’m really grateful to be alive and grateful to be healthy.

“Anything can happen at any time and I’m super blessed to be here.”

Alonso said he feels “normal” and “good” and he hit and took some ground balls on Monday.
