Scherzer was a flat-out boss. The bullpen picked itself up, defense was solid, and the hitting was just enough. And then a little extra.
- Exemplar: Max Scherzer (+41.7% pitching, +0.7% hitting) strikes out 13 and walks 1, giving up no runs in 7 IP. He's 1-3 at the plate, and his AVG may be higher than his AVG against right now...
- Baller: Casey Janssen (+27.5%) earns the heck out of his shutdown, getting out of the aeyth with no runs allowed, including laying out to field a bunt.
