Source (mlb.com) (P - det) | 0 comments.

Verlander made it through 7 1/3 innings without a problem but subsequently gave up a two-run single that knocked him out of the game. It was Brandon Lyon who permitted a three-run homer, although Verlander was responsible for the two runners on base. He's given up five earned runs in each of his past two starts to see his ERA rise 20 points to 3.44, but that shouldn't stop owners from starting him on Sept. 24 vs. a lowly Indians lineup at Progressive Field.
