Another team in that same spot would have scored runs and won that game. Game two they left more men on base and didn't get hits with runners in scoring position.
Game three Verlander had nothing(he even said it) and left pitches right over the plate, yet Yankee hitters did nothing but pop them up. When going good they normally kill the pitches he had thrown them.

Verlanders comment was made about the 9th and he let one hang and gave up a HR. Also, the Yankees starting pitching was fantastic even if the bats sucked. Cabrera and Fielder have had a sub-par post-season, but neither stay cold very long. The timing factor will be more of a hinderance for them, hopefully its a good series.
