Verlander.  One of these days he’s going to pitch like a 3 time CY winner in the series.  (He will get his third this year). 0-6. ERA over 6.  Worst in history for guy with at least 25 (I think that’s the number) innings.  Best was in 2010 when he pitches a no-hitter in ALCS then gets raked by Panda and Company.   If he gets bombed tonight, even Kate might not be able to console him….

I think one of my favorite all-time World Series video experiences was watching Pablo Sandoval hit his second home run off of Verlander, an opposite-field shot whereupon Verlander clearly said "Wow!". His other two HRs were to center field.  Good day for the Panda. Babe Ruth, Reggie Jackson, Albert Pujols and Pablo Sandoval, the only men with three HRs in a World Series game.
