Jimmy Nelson allowed two runs while striking out six over seven innings but took the loss against the Mets on Sunday.
Nelson gave up five hits and two walks on the afternoon, with Lucas Duda's two-run homer serving as the game's only runs. Nelson has made two good starts since being destroyed by the Cardinals before the break, and he's got a 4.30 ERA and 22/8 K/BB ratio over 23 innings this year. Nelson will have a shot at redemption when he takes on those same Cardinals in St. Louis on Saturday.
