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.

Nimmo went 2-for-5 with a double, two RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 8-1 win over the Giants.

Mets first. Brandon Nimmo doubles to deep left field. Francisco Lindor singles to center field. Brandon Nimmo to third. Juan Soto grounds out to second base, Casey Schmitt to Rafael Devers.

Pete Alonso brought the hammer down on the Angels on Wednesday afternoon with a 439-foot three-run homer that capped a four-run third inning and sent the Mets to a 6-3 win that vaulted them into first place in the NL East.
