Key Facts
- (1:01) 10:02 PM UTC * Associated Press New York Mets outfielder DJ Stewart talked himself into another at-bat against the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday after bench coach Eric Chavez tried to tell him he was coming out after three hits in his first three plate appearances.
- "I was supposed to be done," he said during a dugout interview on the Mets broadcast.
- With closer Edwin Diaz already out -- likely for the season -- with a right knee injury, Nimmo gave the team another scare on Friday when he slid awkwardly while trying to break up a double play at second base.
- But Nimmo said on Sunday that there was no structural damage and he is still hoping to be ready for the March 30 opener against the Marlins.
