AI Summary

Clay Holmes suffered a fractured fibula after being hit by a 111.1-mph line drive and is expected to miss a significant portion of the season.

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza told reporters after the game that Holmes will be out "for a long time." It's another massive blow to New York's rotation as Holmes had been exceptional so far this season with a 2.39 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 45/18 K/BB ratio across 52 2/3 innings across nine starts. He'll hit the injured list this weekend and could wind up missing the rest of the year given the severity of the injury.
