Baez was removed in the fifth inning of Sunday's game against the Phillies due to an apparent side injury, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. He went hitless in two at-bats before departing.
The Mets will likely provide a firmer diagnosis of Baez's injury later Sunday, but the infielder looked to be grabbing at his side when he attempted to run out of the batter's box during a groundout in the top of the fifth inning, according to SportsNet New York. J.D. Davis came off the bench to replace Baez in the bottom of the fifth.
