WASHINGTON -- Brandon Nimmo hit a grand slam and matched a franchise record with nine RBIs, helping the New York Mets past the Washington Nationals in a 19-5 rout on Monday.
Nimmo also hit a three-run drive in his seventh career multihomer game. The 32-year-old outfielder had four hits and scored four times after beginning the day with a .192 batting average.
All of Nimmo's damage came in a three-inning span. According to ESPN Research, he became just the third player to pull off that feat in that time frame since the RBI became official in 1920.
