Mets rookie SS Amed Rosario hit a tie-breaking home run in the eighth inning Sunday to help the Mets to a 6-5 win over the Nationals at Nationals Park.
Rosario, 21, is hitting .247 with a .271 OBP. At his current pace, over the course of 550 at-bats for a season, he projects to hit 18 triples with 23 home runs, 23 stolen bases and 3.5 WAR.
"I was looking for the right pitch," Rosario later said. "I came from a league where I wasn't seeing pitches come at me this fast, but as I've adjusted I feel I'm doing better.
