"Everyone knew Scherzer was locked in right from the start with his pregame routine and the moment he stepped on the mound. Stars can be stars, but legends live for this type of moment when everything is on the line. For Scherzer, he showed once again why he is one of the best pitchers ever in the sport. Max Scherzer turns back the clock and gives the Blue Jays a gem to even the series"
"Other than that, the 41-year-old veteran was hitting 96-97 mph on the radar gun while dominating the Mariners over 5 2/3 innings, giving up two earned runs on three hits with five big strikeouts. His performance was certainly one that many will be talking about for a long time. But what made it that much more memorable was the focus, the fire and exuberant emotion that we all got to witness of Scherzer in the process."
Max Scherzer, 41, delivered a dominant start in Game 4 of the ALCS to help the Toronto Blue Jays even the series against the Seattle Mariners. He touched 96-97 mph while pitching 5 2/3 innings, allowing two earned runs on three hits and recording five strikeouts. Canadian Josh Naylor supplied the lone damage with a second-inning solo homer for a brief 1-0 Seattle lead. Scherzer attacked hitters in full "Mad Max" mode with intense focus and exuberant emotion. When manager John Schneider came out in the fifth, Scherzer struck out the next batter and remained in the game.
