This is obviously an incredibly scary situation, and we’re all happy that Alonso is healthy and alive. You can tell from his tone that he wasn’t joking around at all.
He sounded very rattled. Hell, he also sounded a bit scared, and I don’t blame him. The details of the crash sound horrifying.
It just goes to show that you never know when things might go south on you. One moment, everything is fine. The next, you’re walking away from a terrible car crash.
Fortunately, he appears to have dodged any major bullets and is just eager to play some baseball.
