Nelson (3-3) pitched seven innings, allowing one run on seven hits with a season-high 10 strikeouts in Sunday's 9-5 win over the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
This was Nelson's most complete performance of the season. While he didn't have to deal with Paul Goldschmidt, he held a formidable Arizona lineup to just seven hits and one run in seven frames. Nelson punched out a season-high 10 and did not walk a single batter. He also helped himself out at the plate, going 1-for-3 with an RBI groundout. Nelson has been inconsistent so far this season, but he has the ability to put up good strikeout numbers. Sunday was the fourth time he's struck out at least eight. Nelson will need to be just as sharp his next time out, as the Brewers host Clayton Kershaw and the Dodgers.
