We need a better picture than that bro.
One picture is a close up and the other isn't. Also, doesn't a shaved head make your head look bigger?
Scherzer faced 24 batters in 5.2 innings, only five of whom made contact. Kevin Kouzmanoff fouled out in the first, Ryan Sweeney grounded out in the third, Kouzmanoff lined out, Jack Cust doubled in the same inning, and Landon Powellsingled in the fifth. Other than that, everyone else either walked, gothit by a pitch, or struck out. Scherzer's day ended after he plunked Mark Ellisin the sixth, before which he struck out 14 Athletics. Even moreimpressively, 11 of those strikeouts came on swings and misses,including all three batters in the second. His four walks and one HBPtopped off a mostly contactless day.
With the performance Scherzer becomes the 209th pitcher in the past30 years who has recorded at least 14 strikeouts in a game. Yet heseparates himself a bit from the pack. Of the 98 pitchers with 14strikeouts, only five have done it in six innings. None have done it infewer, meaning Scherzer has the quickest 14 strikeouts in the past 30years. In fact, no pitcher in baseball history has struck out as manyas 14 in 5.2 innings. In 1994 Kevin Appier struck out 13 in 5.2 innings. Only A.J. Burnett did it with Scherzer's wildness. He walked four and struck out 14 in six innings for the Marlins in 2005.
Braden: 109 pitches, 77 strikes, 6 K, 7 GB, 10 FB (3 IFFB), 4 LD, +.355 WPA
Halladay: 115 pitches, 72 strikes, 11 K, 8 GB, 8 FB (2 IFFB), 0 LD, +.888 WPA

Best pitcher in the Majors today.
Not for nothing though, Pettitte has beenthis season.
Jimenez's fastball averaged nine inches of horizontal movement onMonday, six inches of vertical movement. And he's throwing 97-100 mph.
Not real.
