Verlander (5-5) allowed two runs on five hits and a walk in seven innings while striking out eight in Sunday's win over the White Sox.
Both runs came on solo shots by Jose Abreu and Todd Frazier, but Verlander's stinginess in letting anyone get on base limited the damage. Verlander threw an impressive 76 of 104 pitches for strikes, and the strong outing dropped his ERA below 4.00 for the first time all season. He'll look to keep his momentum going on the road against the Yankees on Saturday.
