Max Scherzer Hit Hard By Phillies In Two Straight
3 years agoNew York Mets starting pitcher Max Scherzer faced the Philadelphia Phillies in each of his last two starts. He wound up going 1-1 with a quality start over the two-game stretch, but he gave up a lot of hits, including some big ones. In his first outing, he was tagged for three home runs and a total of four earned runs over six innings. In the second outing, he allowed a season-high 10 hits over six innings while being charged with three earned runs. On the bright side, he recorded 16 strikeouts over the two games and gave away only one free pass. The 37-year-old veteran still has fantastic season-long numbers with a 4-1 record to go along with a 2.92 ERA and a 0.95 WHIP. His next start will be on Saturday against the Seattle Mariners.
