The striker scored his 24th and 25th goals of a prolific season as Thomas Tuchel's men took all three points at Signal-Iduna Park.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored twice as Borussia Dortmund returned to winning ways with a 4-1 victory over Stuttgart, as Jurgen Kramny's tenure as caretaker manager started with a loss.
Stuttgart dispensed with Alexander Zorniger following the 4-0 home defeat to fellow strugglers Augsburg last week, but Kramny saw his team make a bad start when Gonzalo Castro'sfirst Bundesliga goal gave the hosts a third-minute lead.
The former Bayer Leverkusen midfielder then played a key part in Dortmund's second, laying off the ball smartly to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who made no mistake with an expertly dinked-finish.
Aubameyang saw a goal chalked-off as Dortmund began to run riot, though Stuttgart did get themselves back in contention courtesy of Daniel Didavi's fifth league goal of the season.
Dortmund stamped their authority on proceedings after the restart, and following a disallowed Marco Reus effort, extended their advantage when Georg Niedermeier turned it into his own net, before Aubameyang added gloss to the victory with a 90th-minute strike.
The win is Dortmund's 10th Bundesliga victory this term, while Stuttgart have now lost their last three league fixtures. Thomas Tuchel's men remain second, eight points behind leaders Bayern Munich.
