NOTES: Mets 2B/3B Dan Murphy was placed on the disabled list with a strained left quadriceps Friday, and INF Danny Muno was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas to take his roster spot. Murphy suffered the injury while running out a ground ball in the third inning of a 6-2 victory Thursday. INF Eric Campbell, who was hitless in his last 27 at-bats, started at third base. ... Arizona 3B/RF Yasmany Tomas made his first major league start in the outfield Friday, starting in right field two days after RF Mark Trumbo was traded to Seattle. Tomas' inclusion put another right-handed bat in the lineup against Mets LHP Jon Niese, with INF Aaron Hill at third base and OF David Peralta not in the starting lineup to rest. ... Arizona LHP Patrick Corbin is expected to begin a rehab assignment Monday at Class A Visalia, Arizona manager Chip Hale said. Corbin, a 2013 All-Star, missed all of last season after undergoing Tommy John surgery in late March. ... Arizona RHP David Hernandez is expected to join the bullpen soon, manager Chip Hale said. "He is ready to go," Hale said. "We'll probably activate him, if not this weekend, when we go on the road." The D-backs open an eight-game road trip Monday in Los Angeles against the Dodgers.
