Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo was pretty impressed with himself. And then the vomiting started.
Nimmo was absent from spring training workouts on Wednesday after he came down with a nasty bout of food poisoning that the team said was the result of eating undercooked chicken he had made himself.
The 25-year-old explained Thursday morning that he was so proud of skills in the kitchen that he took a photo of his meal and sent it to his wife.
