Trevor Story out of Colorado Rockies' lineup vs Mets with jammed thumb

NEW YORK -- Trevor Story was out of the Colorado Rockies' lineup Sunday against the New York Mets because of a jammed left thumb.

The rookie shortstop, who began the day leading the National League with 27 home runs, initially got hurt Saturday night in the fourth inning on a headfirst slide into second base.
