Nelson was the losing pitcher against the Dodgers on Sunday. He gave up eight hits and two runs (with three strikeouts and one walk) in six innings. Nelson labored through the third and fifth innings and that's all opposing starter Clayton Kershaw needed. Despite the loss Sunday, Nelson has pitched well for Milwaukee lately, surrendering three or fewer earned runs in four consecutive starts. He's set to toe the rubber against Kershaw and the Dodgers again on Friday.
