Max Scherzer : October 8th, 2008, 3:10 am est
Max Scherzer yielded two runs -- one earned -- in seven innings for Phoenix in the first game of the AFL season on Tuesday. AFL starters typically average about four innings per start, but the Diamondbacks want to build up Scherzer's innings and will be obliged. Scherzer struck out four and walked none in the game. A homer from Casper Wells accounted for the lone earned run.
