New York Mets center fielder Justin Ruggiano left Monday night’s game against the New York Yankees after the third inning with a mild left hamstring strain.
Ruggiano, who was just acquired on Saturday, had grounded into a double play in the third inning and came up lame.
Michael Conforto replaced him in the lineup while Alejandro De Aza moved from left field over to center field.
The Mets already had Asdrubal Cabrera and Yoenis Cespedes active and unavailable for tonight’s game.
