Lights go out on LA-Nats in series opener

LOS ANGELES -- Andre Ethier had a pinch-hit, two-run single in the seventh inning and the Dodgers capitalized on an error by Hernan Perez to pull out a 3-2 victory on Friday at Dodger Stadium, a comeback for the club and for winning pitcher Chin-hui Tsao.

Jimmy Nelson (6-9) flirted with a no-hitter for the Brewers, but took the loss, snapping a three-start winning streak. He didn't allow a hit until the sixth inning, but gave up a trio of unearned runs in the seventh. Perez committed a fielding error with two outs in the frame to keep the inning alive, which spurred the Dodgers' comeback.
