Astros starting pitcher Jordan Lyles improved to 3-0 with a 1.61 ERA in his last seven starts following Tuesday's 10-1 rout of the Brewers. Lyles hasn't allowed more than two runs in seven straight starts, lowering his ERA from 8.36 to 3.22.
"I'm the same guy," Lyles said, per MLB.com, "just different results. I don't know what to say about me. Just making quality pitches."
Lyles has gone seven innings in three straight starts and four times in his last five appearances.
"I tell you, he's had some impressive outings," Astros manager Bo Porter said. "I was actually even more impressed with him being able to go seven innings, and it didn't look from the dugout like he had his best stuff. That was a great example of the maturity taking place with Jordan Lyles. He grinded his way through seven innings, which is good to see."
