Ruben Tejada makes pinch-hit appearance

Mets shortstop Ruben Tejada made a pinch-hitting appearance Saturday against the Nationals. The 23-year-old drew a walk and scored a run in the fourth inning.

Tejada, who rolled his ankle Friday, is expected to be available Sunday.

"I'm good," Tejada said to MLB.com. "They made the decision to keep me out of the starting lineup today. But I'm ready if they need me to play defense, pinch-hit, something like that. I'm ready to play."
