Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor exited Wednesday’s game against the Nationals due to left calf tightness.

He was replaced by Brett Baty after scoring on Francisco Alvarez’s fourth-inning RBI double, grimacing as he rounded third base.

Bo Bichette slid over to shortstop as Baty slotted in at third base.

Prior to exiting, Lindor went 2-for-2 with a RBI and a run scored.

Since Lindor had two plate appearances during the game, he will not be eligible for DraftKings Early Exit.

Stay tuned to DK Network for live updates on his injury status.

Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
