Three hits in loss to Nats Nimmo went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Wednesday's 8-3 loss to the Nationals.

Impact Things looked good early for the Mets after Nimmo's double on the fifth pitch of the game sparked a three-run rally, but things quickly fell apart after that. The 29-year-old outfielder has hit safely in seven straight games and reached base safely in 21 straight starts, fueling a .286/.402/.439 slash line on the season with three homers, nine RBI and 17 runs.

On base five times Sunday Nimmo went 3-for-6 with two walks and two runs scored across both games of Sunday's doubleheader split against the Phillies.

Impact Hitting leadoff in both contests, Nimmo continues to excel as the table-setter for a Mets squad that's the first in the majors to 20 wins. After reaching base safely in 20 straight starts, he's slashing .270/.393/.427 on the season with three homers, nine RBI and 16 runs.

Idle for first game of doubleheader Nimmo is out of the lineup for the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader with Atlanta.

Impact The Mets are likely just building in some rest for Nimmo during the doubleheader, as the 29-year-old had started in each of the past seven games while going 5-for-28 with a home run and five walks. Travis Jankowski will get the nod in center field and serve as the Mets' table setter in Game 1 of the twin bill, but expect Nimmo to check back into the lineup for the nightcap.

Swats third homer Nimmo went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Monday's 5-2 win over the Cardinals.

Impact One pitch after Dominic Smith put the Mets in the lead with two outs in the ninth inning by beating out an infield single, Nimmo gave his squad some insurance by pulling a T.J. McFarland offering down the right-field line. The homer was Nimmo's third in 14 games to begin the season, and he's also slashing .292/.393/.563 with five RBI and 10 runs.

On base three times in loss Nimmo went 2-for-4 with a walk in Wednesday's loss to the Giants.

Impact After going 0-for-3 with a walk in his return to the starting lineup Tuesday following a brief stint on the COVID-19 injured list, Nimmo was back to making regular appearances on the basepaths. The 29-year-old outfielder has a .432 OBP through nine games this season and has scored seven runs, and his .323 batting average and .613 SLG aren't bad either. Nimmo has been the leadoff hitter for all of his starts, and that doesn't seem likely to change any time soon.
