Niese went seven innings, giving up four runs -- two earned -- on five hits and two walks while striking out four in a no-decision Thursday against the Giants. Niese has now had back-to-back quality starts after a four game stretch in which he allowed 20 runs in 20 innings. He got 15 outs on the ground Wednesday after entering 0-4 with a 7.96 ERA in his last five games. The left-hander retired 12 in a row at one point before substitute third baseman Eric Campbell committed a two-out error in the sixth. Niese received a no-decision, and he'll give it another go in his next start Tuesday against the Blue Jays.
