NEW YORK -- Atlanta Braves right-handed pitcher Reynaldo Lopez left his start against the New York Mets on Sunday after three innings because of tightness in his throwing forearm.

Atlanta said the move was precautionary, but after the 9-2 victory over New York, Braves manager Brian Snitker said Lopez is to fly back to Atlanta for an MRI. He is considered day-to-day until more is known.

A 2024 All-Star, Lopez allowed three hits across three scoreless innings, striking out two.
