OMAHA, Neb. — The odd couple met when they were 15 years old, when they joined a newly formed college showcase team called the Midwest Athletics and their parents still had to drive them to practice.
One is left-handed, from the west side of Michigan, straight-edge. The other is right-handed, from Michigan's east side, and not so serious. Tommy Henry and Karl Kauffmann were born 17 days apart, and over the past seven years, Michigan baseball’s 1-2 punch at the top of the starting rotation has probably been apart for maybe 17 more.
