The 2026 Lansing Lugnuts season was a big one for big numbers. Consider:
In their 30th season in Lansing, the Nuts welcomed in their 1,000th player, earned their 2,000th win, and played their 4,000th game.
Why stop there?
.311... the National League-leading batting average for Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno (2019 Lugnut), who became the first ever Lugnut to win a league batting crown.
10... Lugnuts made their Major League debuts: Daniel Susac, Eduardo Rivera, Henry Bolte, Gage Jump, Kade Morris, Junior Pérez, Joshua Kuroda-Grauer, Tommy White, Yunior Tur and Jack Weisenburger, bringing the total to 210 all-time Big League Nuts.
156... Bazooka gum baseball caps were completely sold out in the Nuts & Bolts shop (as were 200 ice cream mini-bats, 200 pencil mini-bats and 300 lightsaber mini-bats).
191... base hits for 2019 Lugnut/current Miami Marlins star shortstop Otto López, topping all Major Leaguers.
409... total pitches in the Lugnuts' 23-15 loss on June 13 to Cedar Rapids, a game with 38 runs and 48 base hits. Plus, Jared Sprague-Lott became the ninth Lugnut ever to hit for the cycle, collecting a triple and a single in a nine-run eighth inning.
490... estimated feet for Rodney Green, Jr.'s two-out, tie-breaking, three-run homer on May 12 vs. Quad Cities, which ricocheted off a second-floor balcony above the right field terrace.
1,056... Cracker Jack Boxes, and
2,218... bags of peanuts bought during the season, we don't care if we never get back.
5,000... dollars raised by Team Lyders Taco Bell through Plinko on the concourse and donated to the Capital Area Humane Society.
5,400... dollars raised by the Jackson Charity Home Run promotion, $100 per Lugnuts home roundtripper.
7,668... fans attended the Lugnuts' Grand Slam School Day game against West Michigan on May 27, part of over 15,000 fans who attended all of the Grand Slam School Days during the spring.
8,350... nachos, including beef, chicken, Philly, and walking tacos.
9,108... total baseballs prepared for home games, each one rubbed with Lena Blackburne Rubbing Mud to ensure it's ready for play.
10,096... soft pretzels, with cheese or without.
10,557... popcorns, whether in boxes, buckets, or helmets.
13,198... Dippin' Dots. Considering that there are 200 dots estimated in each Dippin' Dots dish, that would make 2,639,600 individual dots purchased at Jackson Field.
17,403... burgers, including olive burgers, smashburgers, cheeseburgers, and more.
27,531... hot dogs, including the foot-long, two-foot party dog, corn dog, diesel dog and bratwurst.
And lastly,
58,491... beers.
Cheers!
