NEW YORK — Mets starter Kodai Senga exited Thursday’s game against the Washington Nationals in the sixth inning with an apparent hamstring injury.

Kodai Senga fell at first base attempting to beat a runner to the bag after receiving a throw from first baseman Pete Alonso in the sixth inning of the Mets' game against the Washington Nationals. He had to jump to receive the throw and was grabbing at his right hamstring after falling to the turf.

Kodai Senga allowed one hit in 5 2/3 scoreless innings before exiting with an apparent right leg injury Thursday afternoon as the New York Mets extended their home-winning streak over the Washington Nationals to 10 games by holding on for a 4-3 victory.
