USC alum Barry Zito earned a victory last night in Game 1 of the World Series by pitching 5.2 innings and giving up just one run to the Tigers. In the process, he beat Justin Verlander and picked up an RBI single off the 2011 MVP.
Who was the last Trojan pitcher to pick up a win in a World Series game? Anthony Reyes for the St. Louis Cardinals.
Coincidentally, Reyes also defeated the Tigers and Verlander in Game 1 of the 2006 World Series.
