Germán Márquez outpitched Max Scherzer, allowing one hit over seven sparkling innings and denying the Mets' ace his 200th career win as the Rockies eked out a 1-0 victory Sunday. LGM
Scherzer gave up four hits and racked up 11 strikeouts over seven innings in his 110th double-digit strikeout game - tying Roger Clemens for third on the career list behind Nolan Ryan and Randy Johnson.
The teams combined for just two hits through six innings - a bloop single by Charlie Blackmon for Colorado in the first and a single by Jeff McNeil for New York in the fifth. Scherzer ended his afternoon by striking out Garrett Hampson with his 112th pitch - his most since throwing 119 for Washington on Sept. 20, 2020. The right-hander has a 2.10 ERA in 11 starts since being activated from the injured list on July 5.
