Brandon Nimmo slips in hotel room, cuts forehead in Mets calamity

The surging Mets encountered an injury scare before their series against the Nationals, as Brandon Nimmo slipped in his hotel room on the way to the bathroom in the middle of the night and cut his forehead, manager Carlos Mendoza said.

The outfielder immediately called team trainers and underwent testing at the hospital Tuesday before the game.

Tests came back negative and Nimmo doesn’t have a concussion, Mendoza said, but Nimmo wasn’t in the lineup for the series-opener.

“I think we got lucky there,” Mendoza said pregame.

But it’s the second concussion scare for Nimmo this season.

After a prolonged slump followed getting hit by a pitch in the head, the Mets sent him for concussion testing that all came back clean, too.

Nimmo, who hit his 100th homer during the Mets’ loss Sunday, eventually snapped out of that rough patch and pieced together a productive June.
