Brewers pitcher Jimmy Nelson allowed one earned run in Wednesday night's 4-1 victory over the Mets. 

Nelson went eight innings, marking the third time he's done so this year. He allowed two hits, one walk and struck out five batters. The two hits allowed was a stark contrast from the 21 he allowed over his previous two starts. 

"He was just good all night," Brewers manager Craig Counsell said, via MLB.com. "That's what gets you excited about him. He's been a little uneven this year, but he's still a young pitcher, and it was a great night for him to build on and to know what's in there."

Nelson now has a 4.34 ERA this season.
