Pete Alonso Injured After Being Hit by Pitch and Taunting Braves Pitcher.

New York Mets' Pete Alonso was hit by a pitch from Atlanta Braves' Charlie Morton, resulting in a bruise on his left wrist. X-rays were negative, but he will undergo a CT scan. Alonso had trash-talked Morton the day before, but the Braves pitcher apologized and made it clear that there was no intent behind the plunking. Alonso referred to his earlier trash-talking as "friendly, competitive banter." The Mets lost the game 7-5.
