Nelson gave up just one earned run over eight innings but did not factor into the decision in Wednesday's loss to the Reds. He gave up just three hits and posted a 5:2 K:BB ratio in the game. Nelson cruised after giving up a run in the first inning, but the Brewers could not muster more than a run off Reds ace Johnny Cueto, and Nelson was unable to pick up his second win of the season. Nelson has been a bright spot in a tough season for the Brewers, posting a 1.35 ERA, 0.70 WHIP, and 17:4 K:BB ratio in 20 innings over three starts.
