Maxwell Martin Scherzer (born July 27, 1984), nicknamed "Mad Max", is an American professional <a href="Baseball" title="Baseball">baseball</a> <a href="Pitcher" title="Pitcher">pitcher</a> for the <a href="Toronto_Blue_Jays" title="Toronto Blue Jays">Toronto Blue Jays</a> of <a href="Major_League_Baseball" title="Major League Baseball">Major League Baseball</a> (MLB). He has previously played in MLB for the <a href="Arizona_Diamondbacks" title="Arizona Diamondbacks">Arizona Diamondbacks</a>, <a href="Detroit_Tigers" title="Detroit Tigers">Detroit Tigers</a>, <a href="Washington_Nationals" title="Washington Nationals">Washington Nationals</a>, <a href="Los_Angeles_Dodgers" title="Los Angeles Dodgers">Los Angeles Dodgers</a>, <a href="New_York_Mets" title="New York Mets">New York Mets</a>, and <a href="Texas_Rangers_(baseball)" title="Texas Rangers (baseball)">Texas Rangers</a>. A right-handed starting pitcher, Scherzer is an eight-time <a href="Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game" title="Major League Baseball All-Star Game">MLB All-Star</a>, has won three <a href="Cy_Young_Award" title="Cy Young Award">Cy Young Awards</a>, has pitched two <a href="No-hitter" title="No-hitter">no-hitters</a>, and won the <a href="World_Series" title="World Series">World Series</a> with the Nationals in <a href="2019_World_Series" title="2019 World Series">2019</a>, and the Rangers in <a href="2023_World_Series" title="2023 World Series">2023</a>. He is regarded as one of the best pitchers in baseball history.

The <a href="Arizona_Diamondbacks" title="Arizona Diamondbacks">Arizona Diamondbacks</a> selected Scherzer with the 11th overall pick of the <a href="2006_Major_League_Baseball_draft" title="2006 Major League Baseball draft">2006 amateur draft</a>. He made his MLB debut with the Diamondbacks in 2008. In December 2009, Scherzer was traded to the <a href="Detroit_Tigers" title="Detroit Tigers">Detroit Tigers</a>. During his five-year tenure in Detroit, Scherzer made the American League All-Star Team twice and won the 2013 American League Cy Young Award. Scherzer also helped the Tigers win four consecutive <a href="American_League_Central" title="American League Central">American League Central</a> titles from 2011 to 2014. In 2015, Scherzer became the fifth pitcher in Major League history to record multiple no-hitters in a single season. On May 11, 2016, in a game against the Tigers, he tied the major league nine-inning <a href="List_of_Major_League_Baseball_single-game_strikeout_leaders" title="List of Major League Baseball single-game strikeout leaders">single-game strikeout record</a> with 20, making him the second player to achieve both a no-hitter and 20 strikeouts over nine innings; in the same game, he became the youngest pitcher to defeat <a href="Major_league_pitchers_beating_all_30_teams" class="mw-redirect" title="Major league pitchers beating all 30 teams">all 30 MLB teams</a>. Scherzer won the NL Cy Young Award in 2016 and 2017 and made the National League All-Star Team five times with the Nationals.

In the <a href="2019_World_Series" title="2019 World Series">2019 World Series</a> against the <a href="Houston_Astros" title="Houston Astros">Houston Astros</a>, Scherzer earned a win in Game 1 and started Game 7, which the Nationals also won (Scherzer received a <a href="No_decision" title="No decision">no-decision</a>) for their first championship in franchise history. Scherzer was traded to the Dodgers in 2021 where they reached the <a href="2021_NLCS" class="mw-redirect" title="2021 NLCS">2021 NLCS</a> and he finished 3rd in NL Cy Young voting. As a free agent, he signed with the Mets and was named to the <a href="All-MLB_Team" title="All-MLB Team">All-MLB Team</a> at the conclusion of the 2022 season. Midway into the 2023 season, Scherzer was traded to the Rangers, where he started Games 3 and 7 of the <a href="2023_ALCS" class="mw-redirect" title="2023 ALCS">2023 ALCS</a> against the Astros, and Game 3 of <a href="2023_World_Series" title="2023 World Series">2023 World Series</a> as the Rangers won their first championship in franchise history.

Scherzer is the fifth pitcher to start an All-Star Game for both the <a href="American_League" title="American League">American</a> and <a href="National_League_(baseball)" title="National League (baseball)">National Leagues</a>. He is a four-time <a href="Win%E2%80%93loss_record_(pitching)" title="Win–loss record (pitching)">wins</a> leader and a winner of three strikeout titles. One of the most consistent hurlers of his era, he made at least 30 <a href="Games_started" title="Games started">starts</a> each season from 2009 to 2018 and struck out at least 230 batters in each season from 2012 to 2019. In 2017, he became the third-fastest player ever to record 2,000 career strikeouts and the fourth to strike out 250 or more in four consecutive seasons. Scherzer recorded more wins (161) and strikeouts (2,452) than any pitcher in the 2010s. He joined the <a href="3%2C000_strikeout_club" title="3,000 strikeout club">3,000 strikeout club</a> on September 12, 2021 and has struck out the 11th most all-time. In 2023, he became only the fourth pitcher in Major League history to win multiple World Series championships, win multiple Cy Young Awards, throw multiple no-hitters, and earn multiple All-Star selections; the others are Hall of Famer <a href="Sandy_Koufax" title="Sandy Koufax">Sandy Koufax</a>, <a href="Tim_Lincecum" title="Tim Lincecum">Tim Lincecum</a> and former teammate <a href="Justin_Verlander" title="Justin Verlander">Justin Verlander</a>.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Early_life">Early life</h2></div>

Scherzer was born and raised in the <a href="St._Louis" title="St. Louis">St. Louis</a> suburb of <a href="Chesterfield%2C_Missouri" title="Chesterfield, Missouri">Chesterfield, Missouri</a>, the son of Jan (Shirck) and Brad Scherzer,<a href="#cite_note-1">[1]</a> and grew up a <a href="St._Louis_Cardinals" title="St. Louis Cardinals">St. Louis Cardinals</a> fan. He played baseball, football, and basketball as a student at <a href="Parkway_Central_High_School" title="Parkway Central High School">Parkway Central High School</a>, which is in his hometown. What he lacked in raw talent, he made up for with the fiercely competitive nature that distinguished his athletic career. One of his high school coaching influences was basketball coach Rick Kirby, who stressed fundamentals and was defense-oriented.<a href="#cite_note-janes071418-2">[2]</a> Marty Maier, then the <a href="2003_St._Louis_Cardinals_season" title="2003 St. Louis Cardinals season">Cardinals</a>' <a href="Scout_(sport)" title="Scout (sport)">scouting</a> director, selected him in the 43rd round (1,291st overall) of the <a href="2003_Major_League_Baseball_draft" title="2003 Major League Baseball draft">2003 Major League Baseball (MLB) draft</a>. However, he did not sign and instead attended the <a href="Missouri_Tigers_baseball" title="Missouri Tigers baseball">University of Missouri</a> in <a href="Columbia%2C_Missouri" title="Columbia, Missouri">Columbia</a>.<a href="#cite_note-3">[3]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="College_career">College career</h2></div>

Early in his time at Missouri, Scherzer exerted so much effort in his windup that his head whip constantly caused his cap to fall off. One of Scherzer's coaches at Missouri, <a href="Tony_Vitello" title="Tony Vitello">Tony Vitello</a>, had helped to recruit him, and eventually persuaded him to pitch with more balance and control and to stop leaping at hitters, which frequently caused him to miss up and in to right-handed batters. He did not pitch the final 50 days of his freshman season, choosing instead to focus on working out and doing long toss, while gaining velocity in the process. Vitello and head coach <a href="Tim_Jamieson" title="Tim Jamieson">Tim Jamieson</a> trained him in a drill to balance on his back leg with more coordination and not to fall over his front foot. Scherzer modified his delivery and worked constantly over the following winter, leading to a 1.86 <a href="Earned_run_average" title="Earned run average">earned run average</a> (ERA) and 131 <a href="Strikeout" title="Strikeout">strikeouts</a> in 106 <a href="Innings_pitched" title="Innings pitched">innings pitched</a> over 16 games during his sophomore season.<a href="#cite_note-janes071418-2">[2]</a> In 2005, he won the <a href="Big_12_Conference_Baseball_Pitcher_of_the_Year" title="Big 12 Conference Baseball Pitcher of the Year">Big 12 Pitcher of the Year</a> Award.<a href="#cite_note-heartland010912-4">[4]</a>

On January 9, 2012, it was announced that Scherzer would be inducted into the <a href="University_of_Missouri_Intercollegiate_Athletics_Hall_of_Fame" class="mw-redirect" title="University of Missouri Intercollegiate Athletics Hall of Fame">University of Missouri Intercollegiate Athletics Hall of Fame</a>.<a href="#cite_note-heartland010912-4">[4]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Draft_and_minor_leagues">Draft and minor leagues</h3></div>

After his freshman year at the University of Missouri in 2004, Scherzer made his debut with the <a href="La_Crosse_Loggers" title="La Crosse Loggers">La Crosse Loggers</a> of the <a href="Northwoods_League" title="Northwoods League">Northwoods League</a> (NWL), a <a href="List_of_collegiate_summer_baseball_leagues" class="mw-redirect" title="List of collegiate summer baseball leagues">collegiate summer baseball league</a>. He went 2–1 that summer with a 1.91 ERA with six saves.<a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a> He also struck out 50 batters in only 33 innings pitched.<a href="#cite_note-:0-6">[6]</a> He was named a mid-season All-Star.<a href="#cite_note-:0-6">[6]</a>

The <a href="2006_Arizona_Diamondbacks_season" title="2006 Arizona Diamondbacks season">Arizona Diamondbacks</a> chose Scherzer in the first round with the 11th overall pick of the <a href="2006_Major_League_Baseball_draft" title="2006 Major League Baseball draft">2006 MLB draft</a>, making him Missouri's first-ever MLB first-round draft pick.<a href="#cite_note-:1-7">[7]</a>

<a href="Mike_Rizzo_(baseball)" class="mw-redirect" title="Mike Rizzo (baseball)">Mike Rizzo</a>, the Diamondbacks' scouting director, marveled that Scherzer attacked hitters with a relentlessness that he had never seen. Seven pitchers were selected ahead of him, including <a href="Luke_Hochevar" title="Luke Hochevar">Luke Hochevar</a> (first overall pick), <a href="Brandon_Morrow" title="Brandon Morrow">Brandon Morrow</a>, <a href="Clayton_Kershaw" title="Clayton Kershaw">Clayton Kershaw</a>, and <a href="Tim_Lincecum" title="Tim Lincecum">Tim Lincecum</a>. Scouting reports criticized Scherzer for too violent of delivery, but Rizzo and other Arizona scouts decided that "the combination of his arm action and his pitching IQ and his attack mode... we were calling him '<a href="Mad_Max_(franchise)" class="mw-redirect" title="Mad Max (franchise)">Mad Max</a>' in the draft room. He came at you. He looked angry. He looked mad."<a href="#cite_note-8">[8]</a>

Scherzer and agent <a href="Scott_Boras" title="Scott Boras">Scott Boras</a> had initial difficulty negotiating a contract with the Diamondbacks; as such, Scherzer did not sign the summer he was drafted.<a href="#cite_note-Jackson-9">[9]</a> Instead, Scherzer began his <a href="Professional_baseball" title="Professional baseball">professional baseball</a> career with the <a href="Fort_Worth_Cats" title="Fort Worth Cats">Fort Worth Cats</a> of the <a href="Independent_baseball_league" title="Independent baseball league">independent</a> <a href="American_Association_of_Independent_Professional_Baseball" class="mw-redirect" title="American Association of Independent Professional Baseball">American Association</a>. He stated that "It was my decision" and "I've never second guessed it.”<a href="#cite_note-:1-7">[7]</a> He appeared in only three games for the Cats, in which he pitched a total of 16 innings, earning a 1–0 record with 25 strikeouts and an ERA of 0.56.<a href="#cite_note-10">[10]</a>

Scherzer later agreed to a four-year, $4.3 million contract with the Diamondbacks,<a href="#cite_note-11">[11]</a> reportedly signing with them just before midnight on the club's May 30 deadline.<a href="#cite_note-Jackson-9">[9]</a>

Scherzer began playing in the Diamondbacks organization with the Class A Advanced <a href="Visalia_Oaks" class="mw-redirect" title="Visalia Oaks">Visalia Oaks</a>. In his first start on June 7 with the team, he struck out 8 and allowed just one run on 2 hits over five innings. The following start, Scherzer pitched seven perfect innings and had 13 strikeouts. He did not finish the game due to a pitch limit, but told reporters he believed he “would have gotten the perfect game if I had stayed in.”<a href="#cite_note-Jackson-9">[9]</a>

Scherzer pitched just one more start for the Oaks before being promoted to the Double-A <a href="Mobile_BayBears" title="Mobile BayBears">Mobile BayBears</a> at the end of June that year. With the BayBears, he posted a 3.91 ERA over 14 starts while striking out 76 in 73 2/3 innings.<a href="#cite_note-Jackson-9">[9]</a>

During the 2007 offseason, Scherzer was named the fourth-best prospect in the Diamondbacks organization.<a href="#cite_note-Baseball_America_Prospect_Handbook-12">[12]</a>

After a good start to the 2008 season with the Triple-A <a href="Tucson_Sidewinders" class="mw-redirect" title="Tucson Sidewinders">Tucson Sidewinders</a>, Scherzer was promoted to the major leagues for the first time on April 27, 2008.<a href="#cite_note-:2-13">[13]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Arizona_Diamondbacks_(2008–2009)">Arizona Diamondbacks (2008–2009)</h3></div>

On April 29, 2008, Scherzer made his MLB debut against the <a href="2008_Houston_Astros_season" title="2008 Houston Astros season">Houston Astros</a> when he came on in relief and struck out the first batter he faced, <a href="Jack_Cassel" title="Jack Cassel">Jack Cassel</a>.

He earned his 12th win of the season versus <a href="2015_Miami_Marlins_season" title="2015 Miami Marlins season">Miami</a> on September 14 with eight shutout innings in a 5–0 win.<a href="#cite_note-95">[95]</a>

On October 3, Scherzer achieved his second career no-hitter, and second of the season, versus the Mets, striking out a new career-high 17 batters with no walks. The only base runners permitted were <a href="Kevin_Plawecki" title="Kevin Plawecki">Kevin Plawecki</a> via a throwing error by <a href="Yunel_Escobar" title="Yunel Escobar">Yunel Escobar</a> and <a href="Daniel_Murphy_(baseball)" title="Daniel Murphy (baseball)">Daniel Murphy</a> via a force out of Plawecki in the same inning.

<a href="#cite_note-secondnono-96">[96]</a> Several baseball analysts and pundits debated the game as one of the greatest pitching performances of all time, and perhaps the most dominant no-hitter ever pitched, based on the number of strikeouts, lack of walks issued or hit batters, and sheer mastery of the opposing batting order the third time through the lineup. At one point, Scherzer had struck out nine consecutive Mets, just one shy of the Major League record set by <a href="Tom_Seaver" title="Tom Seaver">Tom Seaver</a> in <a href="1970_Major_League_Baseball_season" title="1970 Major League Baseball season">1970</a>.<a href="#cite_note-97">[97]</a><a href="#cite_note-98">[98]</a> It tied Nolan Ryan for most strikeouts in a no-hitter, was the first no-hitter produced with at least 17 strikeouts and no walks, and made Scherzer the sixth pitcher in MLB history to record multiple no-hitters in one season.<a href="#cite_note-schoenfield100415-99">[99]</a> With a game score of 104, it was the second-highest achieved on record and made Scherzer the first to achieve multiple game scores of at least 100 in the same season.<a href="#cite_note-canelas100315-86">[86]</a><a href="#cite_note-schoenfield100415-99">[99]</a> That game won the 2015 <a href="This_Year_in_Baseball_Awards" title="This Year in Baseball Awards">Esurance MLB Award</a> for Best Performance.<a href="#cite_note-ladson112015-100">[100]</a>

Because of his three most brilliant performances that season, Scherzer became the first to assemble three-game scores of 97 or higher in one season since at least 1914. Ryan and <a href="Walter_Johnson" title="Walter Johnson">Walter Johnson</a> (1918) were the only two other pitchers to carry out three-game scores of 95 or more in one season.

Scherzer finished the 2015 season with a 2.79 ERA and 0.92 WHIP while striking out 276 batters against only 34 walks for an MLB-leading 8.12 K:BB ratio.<a href="#cite_note-101">[101]</a> He also led all major league pitchers in <a href="First-pitch_strike" title="First-pitch strike">first-strike percentage</a> (73.3%).<a href="#cite_note-102">[102]</a> Despite these exceptional numbers, Scherzer was often the victim of poor hitting support compiling only a 14–12 record.

Nine of the strikeouts ended on three-pitch at-bats. Of 119 total pitches discharged, 96 were for strikes; Scherzer did not deliver more than 16 in any inning. It was the first time in history that in any game of 125 or fewer pitches delivered, 96 or more were strikes. It was the third occasion that Tiger manager <a href="Brad_Ausmus" title="Brad Ausmus">Brad Ausmus</a> was on the losing side of a 20-strikeout game; the first two were as a player.<a href="#cite_note-105">[105]</a> It was also Scherzer's first career victory versus Detroit, positing him as the 17th hurler to earn a <a href="Major_league_pitchers_beating_all_30_teams" class="mw-redirect" title="Major league pitchers beating all 30 teams">win against all 30 MLB teams</a>.<a href="#cite_note-106">[106]</a>

Scherzer performed in relief in the sixth inning, allowing no baserunners.<a href="#cite_note-collier071316-107">[107]</a> His batting achievements for the season included a career-best 12 RBI, which ranked second among major league pitchers to <a href="Adam_Wainwright" title="Adam Wainwright">Adam Wainwright</a> with 18.<a href="#cite_note-108">[108]</a>

Scherzer was named the National League Cy Young Award winner on November 16, 2016, winning his second Cy Young Award on the strength of a 20–7 record, 2.96 ERA, MLB-leading 284 strikeouts, and an MLB-leading 0.968 WHIP.

His record was 3–2 and he struck out 51 for an average of 12.63 per nine innings.<a href="#cite_note-castillo070317-118">[118]</a>

Named to his fifth <a href="2017_Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game" title="2017 Major League Baseball All-Star Game">MLB All-Star Game</a>, Scherzer was NL manager <a href="Joe_Maddon" title="Joe Maddon">Joe Maddon</a>'s selection as the squad's starting pitcher, making him the oldest starter in that lineup. He became the fifth pitcher to start at least one All-Star Game for both the American and National Leagues. At the time of his selection, he consolidated a 10–5 record and an NL-leading both with a 2.10 ERA and 173 strikeouts.<a href="#cite_note-nightengale071017-119">[119]</a> The game was played at <a href="Marlins_Park" class="mw-redirect" title="Marlins Park">Marlins Park</a> in <a href="Miami" title="Miami">Miami</a>; he tossed 15 pitches over one scoreless inning and struck out <a href="Aaron_Judge" title="Aaron Judge">Aaron Judge</a> and <a href="George_Springer" title="George Springer">George Springer</a>.<a href="#cite_note-120">[120]</a>

On August 1, Scherzer hit his first career home run, a three-run blast off <a href="Chris_O'Grady_(baseball)" title="Chris O'Grady (baseball)">Chris O'Grady</a> of the Marlins, but left the game shortly thereafter with neck spasms.<a href="#cite_note-121">[121]</a> The neck issues recurred, and the club placed Scherzer on the disabled list for the first time since 2009, retroactive to August 15.

Incredibly Scherzer barely missed accomplishing this ultra-rare feat in the following 2018 season, where he recorded 300 strikeouts and only 150 hits allowed.

Scherzer was named to the National League team at the <a href="2019_Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game" title="2019 Major League Baseball All-Star Game">All-Star Game</a> in <a href="Cleveland" title="Cleveland">Cleveland</a>, his seventh consecutive all-star selection.<a href="#cite_note-fortier063019-159">[159]</a> He spent time on the injured list starting in July due to <a href="Subacromial_bursitis" title="Subacromial bursitis">bursitis</a> in his right <a href="Scapula" title="Scapula">scapula</a> and a strain on the right <a href="Rhomboid_muscles" title="Rhomboid muscles">rhomboid muscle</a> in his upper back.<a href="#cite_note-160">[160]</a>

Over 27 total starts and 172+1⁄3 IP, Scherzer concluded 2019 with an 11–7 record, 2.92 ERA, 144 hits allowed, 1.027 WHIP, and 243 strikeouts. He led all major league pitchers in strikeouts/walks ratio, at 7.364, and <a href="Fielding_Independent_Pitching" class="mw-redirect" title="Fielding Independent Pitching">Fielding Independent Pitching</a> (FIP), at 2.45. He also led the NL in SO/9, at 12.7. He finished third in the league in strikeouts and fifth in adjusted ERA.<a href="#cite_note-161">[161]</a>

Scherzer started the <a href="2019_National_League_Wild_Card_Game" title="2019 National League Wild Card Game">NL Wild Card Game</a> against the <a href="2019_Milwaukee_Brewers_season" title="2019 Milwaukee Brewers season">Milwaukee Brewers</a>. He pitched five innings and gave up home runs to <a href="Yasmani_Grandal" title="Yasmani Grandal">Yasmani Grandal</a> and <a href="Eric_Thames" title="Eric Thames">Eric Thames</a>. The Nationals came back to defeat the Brewers, 4–3. The win allowed them to advance to the <a href="2019_National_League_Division_Series" title="2019 National League Division Series">NLDS</a> to face the <a href="2019_Los_Angeles_Dodgers_season" title="2019 Los Angeles Dodgers season">Dodgers</a>. Scherzer was the winning pitcher in Game 4 in a 6–1 outcome, and the Nationals won the series in five games.<a href="#cite_note-162">[162]</a>

After the NLDS, the Nationals advanced to the <a href="2019_National_League_Championship_Series" title="2019 National League Championship Series">National League Championship Series</a> (NLCS) to face the <a href="2019_St._Louis_Cardinals_season" title="2019 St. Louis Cardinals season">St. Louis Cardinals</a>, where Scherzer received the starting assignment for Game 2. In Game 1, starter <a href="An%C3%ADbal_S%C3%A1nchez" title="Aníbal Sánchez">Aníbal Sánchez</a> lost a bid for a no-hitter with two outs in the eighth. In Game 2, Scherzer took his own no-hitter into the seventh inning before allowing a leadoff single to <a href="Paul_Goldschmidt" title="Paul Goldschmidt">Paul Goldschmidt</a>. The performances mirrored a feat Sánchez and Scherzer had achieved as teammates while playing in Detroit in Games 1 and 2 of the <a href="2013_American_League_Championship_Series" title="2013 American League Championship Series">2013 ALCS</a> versus the <a href="2013_Boston_Red_Sox_season" title="2013 Boston Red Sox season">Boston Red Sox</a>. Both pitchers started their respective games with five hitless innings. No other pair of starting pitchers had ever taken no-hitters into the sixth inning against the same team in consecutive postseason games.<a href="#cite_note-163">[163]</a>

The Nationals advanced to the <a href="2019_World_Series" title="2019 World Series">World Series</a> to face the American League pennant-winning <a href="2019_Houston_Astros_season" title="2019 Houston Astros season">Houston Astros</a>. This championship quest aligned Scherzer against old rotation mate <a href="Justin_Verlander" title="Justin Verlander">Justin Verlander</a>, that year's AL Cy Young winner.<a href="#cite_note-164">[164]</a> However the pair did not face each other directly in any starts.<a href="#cite_note-165">[165]</a> Scherzer started Game 1 in Houston, giving up two runs over five innings and earning the win. He was scheduled to start Game 5 at Nationals Park but was scratched due to severe neck spasms, for which he received a cortisone shot.<a href="#cite_note-166">[166]</a> Scherzer instead started the decisive Game 7 in Houston, again giving up two runs over five innings. He got a no-decision as the Nationals came back to win the game and the Series. It was the first championship in franchise history and first for Scherzer.<a href="#cite_note-167">[167]</a>

Another end-of-season recognition for Scherzer included selection to the first team of the inaugural <a href="All-MLB_Team" title="All-MLB Team">All-MLB Team</a> as one of five starting pitchers.<a href="#cite_note-calcaterra112519-168">[168]</a> He finished third to deGrom and <a href="Hyun-jin_Ryu" title="Hyun-jin Ryu">Hyun-jin Ryu</a> in the NL Cy Young Award voting.<a href="#cite_note-169">[169]</a>

With a low three-quarters delivery (nearly <a href="Sidearm_(baseball)" title="Sidearm (baseball)">sidearm</a>), but with an overarm starting stretch when nobody is on base, Scherzer throws five pitches: a four-seam <a href="Fastball" title="Fastball">fastball</a> with good movement averaging 92–96 mph (topping out at 99 mph<a href="#cite_note-210">[210]</a>), a <a href="Slider_(baseball)" class="mw-redirect" title="Slider (baseball)">slider</a> at 85–86 mph, a <a href="Changeup" title="Changeup">changeup</a> at 84–85 mph, a <a href="Cutter_(baseball)" class="mw-redirect" title="Cutter (baseball)">cutter</a> at 88–89 mph, and a <a href="Curveball" title="Curveball">curveball</a> at 78–79 mph.<a href="#cite_note-211">[211]</a> He primarily uses a fastball-slider combination against right-handed hitters and a fastball-changeup-cutter combination against left-handed hitters.

Scherzer has been nicknamed "Mad Max" due in part to a perceived higher-than-normal intensity during gameplay, and unusual and extensive preparation techniques.<a href="#cite_note-matz062018-208">[208]</a> He also prepares intently on other aspects of the game, including hitting and baserunning. According to Nationals manager <a href="Dave_Martinez" title="Dave Martinez">Dave Martinez</a>, Scherzer differentiated himself from other major league pitchers because of his focus on hitting in addition to the work on his pitching.<a href="#cite_note-213">[213]</a>
