Mets infielder Ruben Tejada left Friday's game against the Reds after being hit by a pitch in the arm in the bottom of the fourth inning. Tejada, who started at third base on Friday, was replaced by Eric Campbell in the top of the fifth.
The Mets are calling the injury a left elbow contusion. Tejada underwent X-Rays, which came back negative. He was 0 for 1 before departing.
"He's pretty stiff right now," Mets manager Terry Collins said immediately after the game, per MLB.com. "That's why I took him out. He might need a day."
