I'll start it off with:

Yankees 3.54 ERA

Pirates 7.11 ERA
The Yankees DESTROYED the Pirates in just about every offensive stat you can think of in that series, EXCEPT "games won".

Average runs scored per game : Yankees 7.86 vs Pirates 3.86

Yankees won games by average of 11.67 runs (2 unearned)

Pirates won by games an average of 1.75 runs (0.5 unearned)
