PITTSBURGH — Carson Benge received a break Saturday, but not the kind that appears likely to send him to the injured list.
The rookie outfielder was diagnosed with a bone bruise, a day after he jammed his left wrist while completing a sliding catch in left field. Benge was removed from the game with discomfort in the wrist and X-rays were negative. Imaging on Saturday indicated the bone bruise, interim manager Andy Green said before the Mets’ 9-0 loss to the Pirates.
