Journeyman Rajai Davis, who was called up from Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday and arrived in the third inning of the Mets game with the Nationals, hit a three-run homer in his first at-bat with the team. Davis took Nats reliever Sean Doolittle deep in the eighth, when the Mets scored six runs with two outs on the way to a 6-1 win.
