Max and Bryce Make Some History Today; Organizational and Personal
Max Scherzer is earning the new 2015 contract pay he is getting paid as a new National: he got his no-hitter today, one last would-be batter hit on the elbow from a perfect game otherwise. Nice win, Nats.
Bryce broke his personal home run record-- before the official start of summer -- at 23 total and counting for the season after a nervous injury to his hamstring on Thursday.
Today was a good Saturday afternoon game before the evening thunder showers.
While the last three weeks have not been stellar for the ultra-talented but oft-injured Nationals, they are above .500 and barely trailing the Mets, who lost to the Braves. But do watch out for the Braves, who always can make a threatening run.
Bryce Harper is doing great, getting on base spectacularly and knocking in runs, as well as the aforementioned long balls. He is on his way to a fantastic season in his 4th year.
And the Nationals have pitching, which may take them far ...
