Mets’ Jacob deGrom dominates again before leaving with an injury

The New York Mets won last night’s affair with the San Diego Padres 3-2 in yet another masterpiece by their ace Jacob deGrom. The best pitcher in baseball threw six scoreless innings and struck out 10 hitters, lowering his ERA to an extraordinary 0.56.

However, he also had to leave his start after completing the sixth inning, with a right flexor tendinitis. The Mets’ ace has already visited the injured list this season, with some right side tightness.

While one would think the injury will warrant some sort of stay on the injured list, the Mets’ pitcher doesn’t seem particularly concerned.
