The Mets averted disaster Monday after Amed Rosario was hit by a pitch on his left hand by Boston’s Mike Shawaryn and was removed from the game.
X-rays, though, came back negative on the shortstop, who has had an excellent spring.
“He should be fine,” Mickey Callaway said after the Mets lost 9-3 at First Data Field, adding he’d wait to see how Rosario felt when he arrived Tuesday before determining a timeline for return. “It is always scary when one of your guys gets hit. You don’t want anyone to get injured.’’
Fortunately for the Mets and Rosario, the injury isn’t serious.
