Atlanta Braves shortstop Andrelton Simmons was a late scratch for Thursday night's game against the New York Mets.

The Braves tweeted that Simmons would miss the game with a jammed right wrist and would be replaced by Ramiro Pena. Simmons injured the wrist stumbling across home plate during Wednesday night's game.
