I mute MLBTV between innings so I do not have to hear the same highlight clips night after night after night. Much to my surprise, some new clips from this season have been added to the rotation. One of them features Max Scherzer of the Nationals pitching against the Phillies on May 6.
The caption for the clip reads: "Scherzer K's 15 For 5th Time In Career Including 12 Straight".
MLB is correct in stating that game was the fifth time in his career that Scherzer struck out at least 15 batters, but did he strike out "12 straight" Phillies?
