Many questions surrounded the New York Mets entering the 2019 season. One of the questions that was answered with a resounding affirmative was the emergence of first baseman Peter Alonso. Already touted as the top prospect in the organization, Alonzo endeared himself to the Citi Field faithful by launching home run after home run during his historic National League Rookie of the Year season. Alonso’s 53 home runs not only set a Mets’ franchise record, but also a Major League record for a rookie.
On September 28, 2019, Alonso set the all-time home record for a rookie when he took Atlanta Braves pitcher Mike Foltynewicz deep for his 53rd home run of the season. That home run came in the bottom of the third inning. Presented here is a full ticket from Alonso’s historic game. This ticket is from Citi Field’s Premium Seating with “Club Access” located at Section 110, Row A and Seat 6. A black and white picture of Wilson Ramos with his fist in the air is at the center and “GAME 80”, “SAT, SEPT 28 7:10 PM” is printed at the top. This full ticket has been authenticated and encapsulated by PSA (45208830) and has been graded a NM-MT 8.
