Following a May slump that dropped his batting average to .224, Juan Soto has eight hits in his last four games. And when he homered Tuesday night, the Mets slugger stared down Nationals pitcher MacKenzie Gore a couple of times while rounding the bases.

Juan Soto hit an RBI double in the middle of a game-tying two-out eighth-inning rally that set the stage for the Mets’ 5-4 win over the Nationals.
