Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes leaves game early with pulled left hamstring

Yoenis Cespedes, who had been sidelined during the series against the Washington Nationals with a tender left hamstring, re-injured it, but this time more severely as he legged out a double in Thursday’s game.

As he pulled into second base, Cespedes reached back toward his hamstring and the collective hearts of Mets fans everywhere dropped. Yo would eventually need help to get off the field and down into the dugout which showed just how much pain he was in.

The Mets would later relay that Cespedes has a left hamstring pull, and although it’s still early, it’s safe to assume he’ll be out for at least a couple of weeks, if not more.
