NEW YORK -- New York Mets left fielder Brandon Nimmo left Saturday's game against the Atlanta Braves after the fourth inning with what appeared to be a pain in his side.
The Mets said Nimmo had "right intercostal irritation."
Nimmo was visited by manager Carlos Mendoza and a trainer during his at-bat in the second inning against Max Fried. Nimmo appeared to motion toward his right side before taking a practice swing. He remained in the game, drew a walk and played the next two innings in the field before being replaced by Tyrone Taylor.
