Was the performance of Jack Morris in 1991 WS Game 7 the greatest pitching performance of the modern era?

I don't know why it isn't talked about more. The biggest stage in baseball, The World Series. The biggest, most pressurized moment you can get, Game 7. I don't care how many walks or hits you give up as long as you don't give up runs and for 10 innings he held the Braves scoreless. A 10 inning shutout in Game 7 of the World Series. Has there been a better pitching performance in modern baseball when you add all the intagibles. I don't care about Kerry Wood striking out 20 Astros in 1998 or David Wells perfect game or Pedro Martinez's performance in 99 ALDS. This tops them all in my books because he through ten shutout innings in a bigger, more pressure packed stage then any of these guys. Does anyone else agree with me that this is the greatest pitching performance in the modern era of baseball? Underrated as well?
