Major League Baseball pitcher Max Scherzer, who has 204 career wins, was ejected from a game between the Mets and the Dodgers in the fourth inning at Dodger Stadium. This happened following Phil Cuzzi, the crew chief, detecting a foreign substance during routine inspections. A 10-game suspension is what is facing Scherzer over this incident, though he will appeal any decision. According to Dan Bellino, Wednesday’s home plate umpire, Scherzer’s hand was stickier than anything that they had inspected before. Contrarily, Scherzer, 38, and Verlander, 40, through their combined 447 victories, have thrown hundreds of innings and thousands of high-leverage pitches.
