A potential first-inning rally ended prematurely for the New York Mets, who batted out of order Wednesday after a discrepancy in lineup cards.
After Wilmer Flores struck out for the second out of the inning, Asdrubal Cabrera reached on a ground-rule double that bounced into the stands in left field.
Cincinnati Reds interim manager Jim Riggleman immediately approached plate umpire Gabe Morales with his lineup card.
After a brief exchange, Morales ruled Jay Bruce, the next batter in the Mets' lineup, out automatically to end the inning.
