Lauzerique played the first three seasons of his Major League career with the team that drafted him, the Kansas City/Oakland A’s between 1967 and 1969.
In 1970 he was part of the trade that brought the A’s soon to be ERA champ Diego Segui, with Lauzerique appearing in what would be the final eleven games of his Major League career.
Over those 11 games, four of them were starts, and he’d finish with a record of 1-2 with a 6.94 ERA in 35 innings pitched.
He would spend the 1971 season in the Minor Leagues, playing for both the St. Louis and Minnesota organizations, before falling completely off the radar for three years.
He’d be back in pro ball in 1975 and 1976, playing for the Houston Astros system, generally as a reliever, before bowing out of the game for good.
