Nola strikes out career-high eight batters

CINCINNATI -- It is easier to trust the process with the way Aaron Nola pitched Wednesday night at Great American Ball Park.

The Phillies selected Nola with the seventh overall pick in the first round of the 2014 Draft. He moved quickly to the big leagues and once he arrived he impressed, posting a 3.59 ERA in 13 starts last season. He entered 2016 expected to take another step forward and cement his status as a key piece of the Phillies' rotation.

Nola did not disappoint Wednesday night in a 3-2 loss to the Reds at Great American Ball Park.
