Brandon Nimmo Reaches 1000 Hits

0:00On April 20th, Brandon Nemo hit a big milestone Saturday, notching his 1,000th career hit as a Texas Rangers outfielder. It happened with a single in the 9th inning during a loss to the Seattle Mariners, putting him in elite company among big league players. That hit wasn't flashy like his lead off Homer the night before, and the bat shattered on contact. Nemo called it a hero that went out swinging, cool enough to keep as a souvenir. He told reporters it felt awesome, all that hard work, sweat, and tears paying off in a moment worth savoring after the game. Among active players, he's the 54th to reach 1,000 hits, with teammate Corey Seager sitting at 1269 tied for. 9-63rd all time. Freddie Freeman leads Actes with 2,455, followed close by Jose Altuve and Andrew McCutchen. At 32 years old and locked in through 2030, Nemo's got years to chase top 1,000 all time status in a league dating back to 1876, stacking up rare air with every ad bat.
