After picking up his first career hit in the first at bat of his Major League career earlier in the game on Tuesday, Michael Taylor homered in his third AB, an opposite field shot. Pretty nice little debut for Taylor in the Nats 7-1 win over the Mets (2-4, HR, 2 RBI):

Taylor got a hero's welcome upon his return to the dugout after the HR- and more dugout helmet hoops:
Another pic after the Taylor homer. Check out the helmet mid-flight after Werth's jumper. Desmond's the hoop. pic.twitter.com/EtH2LEeihi
