<p>New York Mets starting pitcher Griffin Canning was helped off the field Thursday night after sustaining a left ankle injury in the third inning of their home game against the Atlanta Braves.</p>
<p>After the game, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza told reporters the team believes it is an Achilles injury and that Canning would undergo an MRI exam.</p>
<p>Canning threw a pitch to Atlanta shortstop Nick Allen, who grounded out to shortstop Francisco Lindor. Planting his leg to run to back up third base, Canning crumpled to the ground and held his left leg in the air. Mets catcher Luis Torrens waved for the training staff and Mendoza to attend to Canning before the out was recorded.</p>
<p>The right-hander pitched 2 2/3 scoreless innings, allowing just one hit and fanning three with no walks.</p>
<p>Austin Warren relieved Canning and retired Ronald Acuna Jr. on a popup to second, ending the inning. The Mets wound up with a 4-0 victory, and Warren got the win after tossing 2 1/3 shutout innings.</p>
<p>Canning has a 7-3 record and a 3.77 ERA through 15 starts this year. He has matched up career-high win total, and the ERA is the best in his six major league seasons.</p>
