Nationals' starter Max Scherzer's second no-hitter: What "they're" saying...

Washington Nationals' righty Max Scherzer is now one of five pitchers in MLB history to throw two no-hitters in one season, joining, according to both ESPN and Elias, "The Dutch Master" Johnny Vander Meer, who threw two for the Cincinnati Reds in 1938, New York Yankees' right-hander Allie Reynolds whose two came in 1951, Virgil "Fire" Trucks, who did it twice for the Detroit Tigers in 1952 and the last pitcher to do it before Scherzer on Saturday night, Nolan Ryan, who threw two when he was with the California Angels back in 1973.
