Yankees manager Joe Girardi officially announced Andy Pettitte as his Game 1 starter for Saturday’s ALCS opener against the Tigers.
He’ll oppose Doug Fister in the game. Girardi wouldn’t commit to anything more than that, but it has been speculated that Hiroki Kuroda could start Game 2 on short rest, with CC Sabathia matching up against Justin Verlander in Game 3 of the series.
