Brandon Nimmo reached 1,000 career hits during the Texas Rangers' game against Seattle on April 19, 2026, becoming the latest player to join the exclusive club of major leaguers with four-digit hit totals. The milestone represents the culmination of an 11-year career that began with his MLB debut in 2016.
Nimmo spent his first 10 seasons with the New York Mets from 2016 through 2025 before joining the Rangers in 2026, appearing in games ranging from 32 in his rookie year to 155 in 2025. His most productive seasons came in 2022 and 2023, when he appeared in 151 and 152 games respectively.
Across his MLB career as a whole, Nimmo has compiled a .263 batting average with 139 home runs and 474 RBI over 1,088 games — figures that span both organizations.
The milestone hit came during the Rangers' 5-2 loss to the Mariners at T-Mobile Park in Seattle. Nimmo entered the game needing one hit to reach the 1,000 mark after collecting 27 hits in 22 games to start the 2026 season.
With 193 career doubles, Nimmo approaches his next milestone of 200 doubles, needing just seven more to reach that threshold. He is batting .300 this season with four home runs and 11 RBI through 22 games with Texas.
