Rhys Hoskins tore through the minor leagues, winning the 2016 Eastern League (AA) Rookie of the Year award in 2016, and the International League (AAA) Rookie of the Year in 2017. On August 10, 2017, he made his Major League debut when the Mets played the Phillies in Philadelphia. For Hoskins, it was an uneventful debut, as he went 0-2 at the plate with a walk. Hoskins did flash some leather, making a running catch on the first ball hit his way to make the third out of the first inning. The Mets would win this game, 10-0. But this was the first game in a 22 game tear through August that saw Rhys Lightning bat .304 with 24 hits, 11 home runs, 25 RBIs, and win the August 2017 NL Rookie of the Month award. This ball was used in the top of the fifth inning when Mark Leiter pitched an 82.0 MPH changeup to Yoenis Cespedes, who popped out to center field.
