Scary moment during the Mets vs. Astros game Wednesday … Houston star Yordan Alvarez collided with his teammate in the outfield, and the crash was so violent — the slugger had to be carted off the field.
The collision between Alvarez and shortstop Jeremy Pena happened in the bottom of the 8th inning … when Pena was trying to snag a pop-up in shallow left field.

He, though, didn’t see Alvarez — who was also charging in to catch the ball — and the two huge athletes slammed into each other.
Pena’s arm hit Alvarez square in the face … while Alvarez’s elbow appeared to run right into Pena’s head.
The two crumpled to the ground and stayed down on the field for several minutes … before they each got medical attention from the Astros’ trainers.

Unclear if either guy suffered injuries in the collision — we’re still awaiting word from the ‘Stros.
