Is Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Kate Upton no longer single? The 20-year-old blonde bombshell has reportedly been seeing 29-year-old Justin Verlander of the Detroit Tigers, who is headed to the World Series after his team’s ALCS sweep of the New York Yankees. Upton is one of the most sought-after supermodels in the world. Earlier this year she was linked with New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez, but most recently she was seen wearing her Tigers baseball cap at Verlander's games. The starting pitcher's grandfather, Richard Verlander Sr. said, "I heard he has been on dates with a Sports Illustrated girl. I saw a photo — she’s beautiful,” and added, “They make a good-looking pair because he’s a good-looking man, too." One thing's for sure, we'll be watching Verlander — and looking for Upton — at this year's World Series. In the meantime, enjoy these hot shots of the handsome pitcher, who has been nearly unhittable so far in this postseason.
