Max Scherzer returned to both the New York Mets and Detroit on Wednesday. The latter enjoyed it more.
Scherzer struggled with command for nearly the entire start, and saw a three-digit decrease in the spin rates of his fastball, slider and curveball from his season average, which is not insignificant given the reason for his suspension.
This time, he had former Tigers teammate Justin Verlander alongside him in the Mets rotation. Both have won a World Series championship and multiple Cy Young Awards since leaving Detroit.
