It gets lonely out there with all that space. Then again, Nimmo’s from Wyoming so he used to be surrounded by nothing.
Update: Nimmo chopped a ball to third in his second at-bat. The throw was short hopped to the first baseman and popped out of his glove, allowing Nimmo to be safe at first. He advanced to second on a base hit.

Nimmo makes good contact up the middle by the second baseman snaps it and goes the easy way for the 4-6 putout. Nimmo 0-for-3.
Update: Nimmo reaches first with a walk. Winds up scoring the game-winning run on a bases-loaded walk.
