Uh-oh.
Pete Alonso’s unreal ninth-inning home run off mostly unhittable Milwaukee Brewers closer Devin Williams was the most improbable thing. A home run from a slumping first baseman in a win-or-go-home game in the ninth, one to the opposite field off a pitcher who almost never gives them up? WHAT?
But maybe there was a reason for that. And for that, we have Jomboy to thank with a breakdown that shows that Williams might have been tipping his pitches on Thursday night.
You can see some subtle but noteworthy changes he makes as he comes set. And that means maybe Alonso knew what was coming.
