Mad Max delivered arguably his best start of the season in his return Tuesday night.
The only trouble that Scherzer ran into came in the second inning as he gave up a one-out single to Donovan Solano and hit Moustakas in the elbow in the next at-bat. Solano moved to third on a fly ball, but Scherzer was able to strike out Matt Reynolds on a fastball to come through a 23-pitch inning unscathed.
The only other baserunner that Scherzer allowed was a one-out single to Tyler Naquin in the bottom of the fourth inning. The Mets ace proceeded to strike out the next five batters in order. During the start, he passed John Smoltz for 18th all-time on the career strikeouts list, raising his total to 3,089.Scherzer threw three balls to only one batter over the course of his outing.
The Mets ace had two rehab starts with Class AA Binghamton before returning to the major league mound. In his first outing on June 21, he threw 65 pitches across 3⅔ innings. In the second on a week's worth of rest on June 29, Scherzer used 80 pitches to get through 4⅔ innings.
