Ivan Nova allowed one run on five hits and had six strikeouts over five innings in a relief appearance Wednesday against the Mets. After a disastrous start from David Phelps, Nova provided five innings of quality relief. He gave up just one walk and managed to strike out the side on nine pitches in the eighth. With Phelps struggling, Nova could eventually find his way back into the Yankees' starting rotation. He has a 1.50 ERA since returning from the DL.
