MILWAUKEE (AP) Jimmy Nelson pitched six solid innings and Jesus Aguilar drove in the go-ahead run with a two-out double in the fifth to help the Milwaukee Brewers pull away from the San Francisco Giants for a 6-3 victory Wednesday night.
Nelson (4-3) struck out six and allowed seven hits along with his first walk since May 23. But he was still sharp enough – outside of a three-run third inning – to earn his second win in three starts.
Aguilar went 2 for 4. He turned quickly on a 1-2 fastball away from Ty Blach (4-3) for a two-out double to right field that scored Domingo Santana from first to snap a 3-all tie.
