Amed Rosario has grown by leaps and bounds lately — with his glove and his bat. He took that in a literal sense Friday night.
The Mets shortstop saved Marcus Stroman in a sixth-inning jam with a highlight-reel, leaping catch on a line drive that had RBIs written all over it, and added three hits of his own on the way to a 7-6 walk-off win over the Nationals at Citi Field.
Rosario’s single with two outs in the ninth inning brought Michael Conforto to the plate to deliver the game-winning hit and send Citi Field into hysteria.
