Cardinals pitcher Lance Lynn threw 7 2/3 scoreless innings Tuesday to help lead the Cardinals to a 1-0 win over the Brewers.
He also struck out five batters and walked one during the outing. Lynn picked up his fourth win of the season for his effort and his ERA now stands at 3.03.
"He was great, and really is finding a great feel for manipulating the fastball with cuts, sink and four-seam," manager Mike Matheny said of Lynn, per MLB.com. "Not many guys can get away with what he's doing. But he's locating it so well and taking off a little bit to put more run on and he's doing a real nice job."
The 7 2/3 innings was Lynn's longest outing of the season. He has now tossed at least six innings in nine of his 11 starts this season. His next expected start is scheduled for Sunday at the Los Angeles Dodgers.
