“ Brandon Nimmo left tonight’s game in the fourth after his second single. Also left early Wednesday with hamstring tightness he said is a common occurrence and manageable,” Wilson reported.
Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News later reported that Nimmo exited the game with hamstring tightness once again. However, McFarland also shared an encouraging update .
“This feels more precautionary than anything,” McFarland reported. “It’s cold out, they’re up 4-0, and Nimmo looked fine in the dugout from what I could see.”
The Rangers and Nimmo seemingly believe the hamstring injury issue is something that the outfielder can play through. Texas will continue to closely monitor the situation, however.

Updates on Brandon Nimmo’s injury status will continue to be monitored and provided as they are made available.
