LONDON (AP) — The Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets are enjoying London so much they might not want to go home.
Can you blame them? There's business ahead with a two-game set this weekend, but Friday's workout at London Stadium was a laid-back affair following team dinners the night before.
“It was really nice to have a proper pint of Guinness,” Mets first baseman Pete Alonso said.
A group of Phillies visited the Tower of London for an event before heading to a Philly-themed bar. Phillies manager Rob Thomson estimated the crowd at 500 fans.
