Max Scherzer

Max Scherzer strikes out 10 Washington Nationals in a dominant performance, leading the Detroit Tigers to a 5-2 victory over the Nationals on April 27, 2019. Scherzer allowed just two hits and one walk while fanning 10 in seven innings of work. The Tigers' offense provided just enough support, with Jeimer Candelario hitting a two-run homer to back Scherzer's outing. Scherzer became the first Tigers pitcher to record double-digit strikeouts in a game since Justin Verlander in 2016.
