Sadly not twilight zone at all.
Verlander is 0-6 with an ERA over 6 in the World Series. In game 1's, his ERA is over 10.
Like I posted before the game, this was not a shock. The first three innings were a bit of a mirage i guess. Smoltz thought he was losing his form.
A great all time pitcher who struggles in the biggest moments.
