Nola (5-8) allowed five runs on six hits, struck out seven and walked one over five innings during a loss to the Royals on Saturday.
He was able to work out of trouble in the first, but with two outs in the second, Kansas City scored four runs. The Royals scored all five of their runs versus Nola in the second. Nola retired the last 10 batters he faced, but he's still allowed at least five runs in each of his last four outings. He will try to get back on track in his next start against the Rockies on Thursday.
