Mets: OF Carlos Beltran is out of the lineup with tendinitis in his left knee caused by

overcompensating during rehabilitation from surgery on his right knee. Beltran says he felt pain after stepping hard at first base during his first at-bat on Friday. Reds: Pete Rose, joined by former teammates Tony Perez and Cesar Geronimo, went onto the field at Great American Ball Park for the first time since it opened in 2003. The team got Major League Baseball’s permission to have Rose on the field for the 25th anniversary of his record- setting hit No. 4,192. Rose, serving a lifetime ban for betting on baseball games, wore a No. 14 jersey and stomped on first base as the videoboard showed highlights of his career. Twins: DH Jim Thome was back in the starting lineup against the Indians after missing two games with a mild abdominal strain. White Sox: RHP Freddy Garcia was scratched from Sunday’s scheduled start against the Royals with a sore lower back. Manager Ozzie Guillen said RHP Lucas Harrell will start instead.
