Nelson was hammered for six runs on seven hits, walking three and striking out one while lasting just four innings in a 6-3 loss to Philadelphia on Friday night.

EDGE Analysis

This broke a string of four consecutive quality starts - eight of his 11 starts have been quality. However, it should be noted that Nelson (5-4)sometimes litters the bases with extra runners. He has generally been able to wiggle off the hook, but any tine you put extra runners on base, you run the risk of a big inning. He'll try to get back on track in his next start against the Mets in Milwaukee.
