Mets have a different plan for Kodai Senga’s rehab this time

Senga retired 15 of the last 16 Nationals he faced, allowed one walk, struck out five and left with the Mets ahead 4-0. After Jose Castillo and Huascar Brazoban carried the shutout to the ninth — with the help of a run-saving diving catch by centerfielder Tyrone Taylor — things got dicey for the Mets.
Mets right-hander Kodai Senga exited his start against the Nationals on Thursday at Citi Field in the sixth inning after appearing to injure his right hamstring while covering first base. Nats shortstop CJ Abrams hit a grounder to Pete Alonso at first base.
Its Thursday, June 12 and the Nationals (30-37) are in Queens to take on the Mets (44-24). Michael Soroka is slated to take the mound for Washington against Kodai Senga for New York.
