Unbelievable Postseason Feat: Discover the Secret Behind the Lowest ERA Ever Recorded in the World Series!
T-1. Matt Cain, 2010 San Francisco Giants (0.00 ERA in 21.1 IP)
Long before Madison Bumgarner’s epic performance in 2014, Cain had one of his own in the 2010 postseason. In the midst of a streak of dominant regular seasons, he started in the NLDS, NLCS and World Series, allowing 13 hits and one unearned run over 21.1 innings in the three outings. His victory in Game 2 of the Fall Classic helped San Francisco beat the Texas Rangers in five games.

T-1. Carl Hubbell, 1933 New York Giants (0.00 ERA in 20.0 IP)
Hubbell had a very old-school effort in the 1933 World Series against the Washington Senators. After giving up two unearned runs while striking out 10 batters in a complete-game 4-2 win in Game 1, the left-hander scattered eight hits and allowed one unearned run over 11 innings in a 2-1 victory in Game 4. The next day, the Giants closed out the Senators with a 4-3 win in Game 5.
