The Texas pitching staff hasn't shown up for the World Series allowing 14 runs in the first two games. The Texas bullpen was 23rd in ERA (4.77) during the regular season and has been the fourth-worst among playoff teams (3.90 ERA). 39-year-old Max Scherzer took a lot of time off down the stretch while rehabbing and has been terrible in the playoffs (nine hits and seven runs allowed in 6+ innings). Texas is 8-15 on the road in inter-league games. Arizona's bullpen has had a 3.04 postseason ERA and starter Brandon Pfaadt has been in a groove over the last month (five runs allowed in 22+ innings). In three of his last five outings, he's allowed no runs. The Diamondbacks are on a 10-5 run in October, 25-7 after a win by four or more runs, and 17-9 after scoring 8+ runs. Play Arizona.
