Max Scherzer will start Detroit's AL division series opener Friday
    night at Oakland, with star Justin Verlander following in Game 2.

    Scherzer (21-3) was baseball's lone 20-game winner this year and
    started for the American League in the All-Star game, but manager
    Jim Leyland's choice for the opener had not been clear. Verlander
    was the 2011 AL MVP and has been one of the top pitchers in the game
    over the last few seasons.

  Of course Scherzer would be the Game 1 starter. He earned it.
