Jimmy Nelson allowed three runs on four hits over six innings in a no-decision against the Reds on Tuesday.
Nelson actually got through six innings with only one run allowed, but things fell apart in the seventh. The Reds got two quick singles and Nelson proceeded to hit Zack Cozart and Ramon Santiago to force in a run, with the second HBP ending his night. Reliever Brandon Kintzler did his best to limit the damage, but the Reds plated one more to saddle Nelson with the no-decision. He walked one and struck out five on the evening. The right-hander is still in search of his second win, and he'll carry a 5.06 ERA into Sunday's meeting with the Mets.
