Tejada exits after getting plunked in elbow

MILWAUKEE -- Injured second baseman Daniel Murphy began a Minor League rehab assignment on Wednesday, keeping him on track to join the Mets this weekend.

Murphy, who has been on the disabled list since June 5 with a strain in his left quad, went 1-for-1 with a walk for the rookie-level Gulf Coast Mets. He played third base until the game was called in the fourth inning because of rain.
