As a member of the Tigers, Scherzer won the American League counterpart for the award for the week ending June 24, 2013 -- the year he won the AL Cy Young Award.
In his last start Saturday afternoon, Scherzer was at his best, throwing the second no-hitter in Nationals history in a 6-0 win over the Pirates. He was an out away from a perfect game before he hit Pirates outfielder Jose Tabata with a pitch.
It didn't seem to matter for Scherzer that he didn't have the perfect game.
"Cloud nine," Scherzer said on Saturday.
