Mets pull Pagan from game with back injury

LAKELAND, Fla. — The Mets have a new injury concern in the outfield.

Angel Pagan left Tuesday’s game against the Tigers with tightness in his lower back, according to a club spokesman. It is not known how Pagan sustained the injury.

The Mets are already one short in the outfield, as Carlos Beltran continues to rehab his left knee.
