With New York under an extreme heat warning<\/a>, the Mets<\/a> took extra precautions Monday.<\/p>\n

Those included a later report time for players and shorter rounds of batting practice before the series opener against the Atlanta Braves<\/a> at Citi Field.<\/p>\n

Inside the Mets\u2019 clubhouse, a video screen encouraged players to stay hydrated, to monitor their weight, and to be efficient with their pregame work outside.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know our group will continue to provide information, education to the players, as far as staying hydrated and things like that,\u201d manager Carlos Mendoza said. \u201cIt\u2019s that part of the year now where you\u2019re gonna be playing under weather like this, so we\u2019ll act accordingly and we\u2019ll have the guys ready to go.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Mets designated four sections, as well as the Jackie Robinson Rotunda, as cooling stations for fans and made ice packs available at all fan assistance locations.<\/p>\n

It was 90 degrees when the Mets players warmed up before Monday\u2019s game, and it\u2019s expected to be even hotter on Tuesday when starter Frankie Montas<\/a> makes his season debut in his return from a lat strain.<\/p>\n

\u201cJust try to stay hydrated,\u201d Montas told the Daily News with a laugh. \u201cTrying to get quick outs, trying to not have a high pitch count and just trying to work quick.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tuesday\u2019s forecast features a high of 99 degrees in Flushing. The National Weather Service\u2019s extreme heat warning is set to remain in effect until at least 8 p.m. on Tuesday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With New York under an extreme heat warning, the Mets took extra precautions Monday.
