Mets' Jeff McNeil: Avoids serious injury

McNeil went for an X-ray following Monday's win over the Phillies but is expected to be fine after getting hit by a pitch on his hand, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

McNeil remained in the game after being struck by the pitch, although he appears to have avoided a significant injury. He noted that the pitch merely nicked one of his fingernails and then glanced off his other hand. The 27-year-old, who hit his first homer of the year earlier in the game, is expected to be ready to play in the second contest of the series Tuesday.
