Nelson (10-6) got the win over the Giants on Tuesday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out nine over 6.2 innings.

The Giants scratched across a run against Nelson in the first and scored once more in the sixth with a solo home run by Matt Chapman. Nelson otherwise continued his brilliant run of starts, posting a fifth straight quality outing and the ninth over his last 11 starts while tying his season high with nine strikeouts. Since July 2, he holds a 2.76 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 75:14 K:BB in 75 innings. Before then, Nelson was sporting a 5.69 ERA and 1.57 WHIP in 14 starts. He'll look to keep rolling in a projected road start against the Astros this weekend.
