Leyland awed by Verlander's performance.

Most guys go from 95 [mph] and then by the seventh inning they're down to 92, 91," Leyland continued. "This guy goes from 92 to 94 to 95 in the middle [innings] to 99 to 100 late. That's what is a freak. I'm not calling him a freak. I'm saying it's a freaky thing. I've never seen anything like it."
"The average person sees 98 on the scoreboard, but they don't see the same 98 I see," Leyland said. "I see the difference between the 98 that's more effort and the 98 that's effortless. There's a major difference in that. And that's what he did last night. When he got to 98-100, it was fluid. He wasn't muscling way up. If you really watch close you can see it. It's amazing to me."
