Brothers reunited: Smith, Rosario both record career firsts in Philly

The night was supposed to belong to Dominic Smith. He didn't mind sharing the stage with fellow ballyhooed prospect Amed Rosario.

Highlighting a game in which Smith made his major league debut, Rosario -- a veteran of 11 days in the big leagues -- launched a tiebreaking, solo homer in the ninth inning as the Mets continued their dominance of the Phillies with a 7-6 win on Friday at Citizens Bank Park.

"I've been seeing that stuff all year," Smith said about Rosario's decisive long ball.

It was Rosario's first major league homer.
