New York Mets starting pitcher Jacob deGrom exited Thursday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies after being hit by a line drive in the seventh inning, MLB.com's Anthony DiComo reported.
DiComo later reported deGrom suffered a bruised right triceps and x-rays were negative.
DeGrom pitched 6.2 innings, allowing four hits and striking out nine.
After posting sub-3.00 ERAs in 2014 and 2015, deGrom took a slight step backward in 2016. He finished 7-8 in 24 starts, and his ERA was a career-high 3.04. His FIP also climbed to 3.
