Lauer (5-5) earned the win Tuesday over Philadelphia. He allowed just four hits and a walk with five strikeouts across seven shutout innings.
September is treating Lauer well so far, as he's allowed just one run, seven hits and two walks across 14 innings in his two starts this month. Philadelphia couldn't get a runner past second base on the southpaw's watch Tuesday. With the stellar start, Lauer lowered his ERA to 3.18 with a 1.18 WHIP and 91:33 K:BB through 96.1 innings this season. He'll look to keep rolling next week in Detroit.
