NEW YORK — Whatever the scoreboard ultimately said after the final out of the game, the bigger question for both teams leaving the field Wednesday night was what they may have lost from their roster — and for how long.
Cardinals shortstop Edmundo Sosa and Mets veteran ace Max Scherzer both signaled from the field to the dugout at points late in the game and abruptly left with injuries. Sosa was diagnosed with a mild strain of his left ankle and listed as day to day, though the Cardinals will have to quickly reassess their middle infield depth before Thursday’s afternoon finale to the four-game series at Citi Field.
Scherzer will undergo scans of his torso and oblique muscle Thursday to determine the cause of discomfort running along his left side, according to a Mets officials.
