Texas outfielder Brandon Nimmo exited the Rangers' 3-0 win over the New York Yankees due to right hamstring tightness on Wednesday in Arlington, Texas, but he is optimistic he won't miss additional action.
Nimmo sustained the injury while beating out a fifth-inning single off first baseman Ben Rice's glove, and it worsened as he went from second to third on a groundout by Joc Pederson. He was replaced by pinch runner Sam Haggerty, who then took over in left field while Alejandro Osuna moved over to right field.
After the game, Nimmo said he was hopeful he would be ready to play on Friday at Detroit. The Rangers are idle on Thursday.
'I'm not concerned about it,' Nimmo said. 'It just is something that, if you continue to push through, can turn into something bigger. ... If tomorrow we were playing, maybe we would utilize the DH, to be sure.
'I anticipate to be available to play right field on Friday.'
Acquired from the New York Mets in a November trade for Marcus Semien, Nimmo is hitting .290 with four homers and 12 RBIs in his first 31 games for the Rangers.
After being frequently injured early in his career with the Mets, Nimmo missed a combined 39 games over the past four seasons. In his final season for the Mets, Nimmo set career highs with 25 homers and 92 RBIs in a career-best 155 games.
