Dodgers starter Eric Lauer sidelined with left elbow inflammation after rough outing

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Eric Lauer went on the injured list with left elbow inflammation Wednesday. The left-hander gave up seven runs and eight hits in three innings of a 13-8 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday. “I felt good warming up, felt good in the bullpen and then got out there and kind of just lost it,” Lauer said after the loss, not mentioning a possible injury.
