Wright, Beltran sidelined for Mets
New York ? Third baseman David Wright joined center fielder Carlos Beltran on the sidelines for the New York Mets before Friday night’s game against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Wright was a late scratch from the starting lineup, complaining of back spasms.
Beltran, who left Thursday night’s game against San Francisco after a collision with first baseman Rich Aurelia of the Giants, had an MRI on his bruised right knee. The results were negative, and he was listed as day-to-day.
“It feels tight,” Beltran said.
