In his one regular season outing against the Los Angeles Dodgers this year, back in May in LA, Max Scherzer, the Washington Nationals’ 35-year-old ace, gave up five hits, two walks, and two runs in seven innings on the mound, striking out seven of the 29 hitters he faced in a 5-2 win.
What, if anything, did the Dodgers take away from that outing, and what they watched of Scherzer’s others starts heading into last night’s game?
“The thing that obviously that is most concerning is his stuff,” Dave Roberts said on Sunday night, when the Dodgers’ skipper was asked about his concerns going into Game 4 against the three-time Cy Young award-winner.
