Last night I saw a small lizard crawling up the garage door as a frog looked on nearby. As I watched, the frog began to follow the lizard as if he were trying to catch it but I wondered if it could really 'eat' the lizard since I believe frogs are without teeth. Do frogs eat lizards?

Some frogs and toads - especially the larger ones (cane toad for example) can eat extremely large prey - fish, other frogs, and yes, lizards - depending on their size.
I don't recommend a cane toad as a pet - they're poisonous.

Frogs will eat anything that they can fit in their mouth! The frog will eat the lizard. Many frogs die trying to injest food thatis too large for them, they suffocate or starve to death.

Frogs will generally eat any live, moving prey that will fit in their mouths, including lizards.
Frogs DO have teeth, but they are usually small. They are designed for gripping prey, not chewing.

Frogs don't usually eat lizards.

possibly, depending on types, not common though. Small lizard could be gecko, frog could be cane toad, then it is probable. frogs/toads don't need teeth to eat, long tongue, catch, gulp, swallow!
