Jimmy Nelson goes the distance in Brewers' win

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jimmy Nelson turned in a complete game in Sunday's 2-1 win over the San Diego Padres, allowing one run on six hits while striking out 10.

What It Means:

Erick Aybar got Nelson for an RBI single in the 5th inning on Sunday, but that was the only damage to an otherwise lights out game. Nelson threw a total of 118 pitches and he lowered his ERA to 3.39 over 85 innings this season.

Our models project Nelson to post a 4.07 ERA and a 1.39 WHIP, with 83 strikeouts over 110.2 innings remaining this season.
