Detroit: Appointments will be held on Wednesday morning within the office of the Athletics Department at the Harvard-Westlake school in Los Angeles.
A few thousand miles away, two of theirs will launch on each other against each other.
Max Fried and Jack Flaherty are ready in the final of the Wednesday’s series between the Yankees and Tigres in Erica Park, and although they have combined to launch in some 300 major league games, this will be the first time that the former teammates of the high school began the game.
“We will have many competitive juices, sure,” Fried said Tuesday. “It will be fun. It will be a small friendly competition, but at the end of the day, it is the same.”
