Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo missed Monday night's game against the Nationals after being injured in a fall in his hotel room overnight.
"He went through all the tests this morning," Mendoza said."Wanted to make sure we weren't missing anything. Luckily everything came back negative, so I think we got lucky there."
Nimmo said he woke up not feeling well around 5:15 a.m. He went to the bathroom, cramped up and fainted. When he came to and got up from the floor, he was bleeding from the head and wasn't sure why. He called the Mets' trainers, who went to his room to assist him.Nimmo went to the hospital Monday for tests, including a CT scan, but arrived at the ballpark before gametime and spoke to reporters with a bandage on his forehead.
