Brandon Nimmo credits a mindset shift for his 2025 resurgence as the New York Mets chase their first NL East division title in a decade.

SAN FRANCISCO – It’s not too often you hear about a 10-year veteran maturing, but last year, mired in a brutal July that saw him batting .188, Brandon Nimmo figured something needed to change. Or rather, maybe things needed to go back to where they were.

Innings six through eight was a battle of strong performances out of the pen. On the Mets side, Huascar Brazobán pitched around two hits to throw a scoreless sixth. and Rico Garcia had an impressive seventh and eighth innings, striking out three in two perfect frames.
