Brandon Nimmo has overcome his early-season struggles, hitting three home runs in two games and driving in 14 runs against the Nationals this season, contributing to the Mets’ sixth consecutive win. After being shifted to the second spot in the lineup, Nimmo is thriving with a .381 batting average and a 1.196 OPS, benefiting from hitting in front of stars Juan Soto and Pete Alonso. The Mets, including Jeff McNeil, who also homered, are looking to continue their success against the Tampa Bay Rays this weekend.
