Nationals Pitcher Max Scherzer 'Fundamentally Against' Pitch Clock in Baseball

One of the best pitchers in Major League Baseball is vehemently against the use of a pitch clock as an attempt to speed up the game.

Per ESPN.com, Washington Nationals ace Max Scherzer explained why he is "fundamentally against" the idea of forcing pitchers to throw the ball within certain time parameters:

"I know as players, that's something that MLB is trying to negotiate. I don't think there's negotiation here. As players, it just shouldn't be in the game. Having a pitch clock, if you have ball-strike implications, that's messing with the fabric of the game.
