In summer 2012, Conforto played 16 games for the USA Baseball Collegiate National Team. As a Freshman in college that same year, he played for Baseball America All-America Second Team.

Conforto was awarded Louisville Slugger Freshman Hitter of the Year and Freshman All-America First Team. The Seattle native went to Redmond High School and was named All-State and All-League after a senior campaign.

In September 2017, Conforto underwent shoulder surgery. According to ESPN, at the time, he had to rehabilitate for months, which ended his breakout season on a down note.

The New York Mets star got injured on August 24 that year during a swing. An MRI on his left shoulder revealed a tear in the posterior capsule; the 27-year-old had collapsed in pain after the incident.

Regardless of the injuries endured during his career, the Mets rookie takes after his father in sports. According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, his dad is a former Penn State linebacker.

A decade before he began his professional baseball career with the Mets, Conforto got the opportunity to watch his father play football when he was just 11-year-old. The elder Conforto was never a starter but played on two teams that finished among the top five in 1977 and 1978.
