Game 69 WPA: Max improves. 96% perfect. (Nats win)
Good one, dude. - Brad Mills-USA TODAY SportsI tell you, his last outing was probably better pitched, but Maxie got a strike and an elbow away from a perfecto on this one. That's baseball for you. What a game.
Via Fangraphs (click to embiggen) All the runs robbed him of WPA: Max Scherzer (+36.5%) fans 10, walks none, and allows a single baserunner on a HBP after 26 straight outs in the course of a no-hitter.
On the way to overdetermination: Bryce Harper (+18.9%) is 2-4 with a fourth-inning solo bomb onto the batter's eye in center for the winning tally (+14.7%). Anthon Rendon (+0.1%) doubles in a run to put the Nats up by two in the 6th (+9.9%).
