Right this moment may very well be the final time we ever see Max Scherzer pitch in a serious league uniform. He’s taking the ball tonight for the Blue Jays as they attempt to even up their collection in opposition to the Mariners and assure a minimum of another baseball sport in Toronto this October.
For some time, it regarded just like the final time we’d ever see Scherzer pitch once more was the sport in opposition to the Crimson Sox again on September twenty fourth when he acquired lit up for ten hits in simply 5 innings of labor. Toronto hated that outing a lot they left him off the ALDS roster in opposition to the Yankees, and are solely turning to him now as their pitching runs skinny.
It’s a basic “does the outdated king of the jungle nonetheless have another combat left in him?” script, and I’m wanting to see the way it performs out with it coming at a vital swing level on this ALCS. Scherzer’s been part of so many huge postseason moments over time, so it solely appears applicable he will get another check right here on the finish of the road.
Talking of issues coming to an finish, right now and tomorrow may very well be the ultimate two days the place we now have multiple baseball sport on the docket till spring. There’s an opportunity we nonetheless get another of those on Monday if the ALCS goes seven video games and the NLCS goes a minimum of six, however take pleasure in these two evenings in the event you love baseball as a result of you might not have one other for 5 months.
