After Bryce Harper was named as a starter on the National League All-Star team last night, Major League Baseball announced tonight who would be the reserve hitters and the pitchers in each league. The other Washington Nationals player that will be joining Harper in Cincinnati on July 14 is starting pitcher Max Scherzer (9-6, 1.82 ERA).
This will be Max Scherzer’s third straight All-Star Game, but his first as a member of the National League. In 2013, he got the start for the American League at Citi Field against Matt Harvey.
