Mets' Harrison Bader exits after crashing into outfield wall

WASHINGTON -- New York Mets center fielder Harrison Bader left their game Tuesday night at the Washington Nationals, an inning after he crashed into the wall and went down awkwardly trying to make a catch.

The Mets said Bader was pulled for precautionary reasons.

Bader went back on a ball hit by Jacob Young in the bottom of the third and collided left arm first with the video screen in right-center field. He was slow to get to his feet but stayed in the game until Washington's half of the fourth, when he was taken out.
