Rookies face off in World Series Game 1 (AP)

AP - When the Cardinals and Tigers last hooked up in the World Series the starting pitchers in the opener were Bob Gibson and 31-game winner Denny McLain. When they get together at Comerica Park on Saturday night Game 1 will have a pair of rookie starters for the first time with Detroit's Justin Verlander facing off against Anthony Reyes. And the way Reyes sees it two rooks are better for him than one.
