Mets calling up OF Gomez 12 years after debut
MIAMI -- Twelve years later, outfielder Carlos Gomez is back in the New York Mets' lineup.
New York selected Gomez's contract from Triple-A Syracuse and had him batting sixth and in right field Friday night at Miami.
The Mets placed outfielder Michael Conforto on the seven-day injured list due to a concussion, and designated outfielder Keon Broxton for assignment. They recalled right-hander Paul Sewald from Syracuse.
Gomez, an All-Star for Milwaukee in 2013-14, last played for the Mets when he was a rookie in 2007. They signed him to a minor league contract in March, and he batted .270 with 22 RBI in 35 games for Syracuse.
Broxton batted .143 in 34 games for New York this season.
