Strikes out four in hard-luck loss Scherzer (1-5) took the loss against the Red Sox on Thursday, allowing one run on three hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out four.
Impact The 42-year-old right-hander looked spry on the bump Thursday, throwing a season-high 92 pitches in a strong outing. Scherzer is slowly beginning to turn an injury-plagued year around, tossing at least five innings while conceding three runs or fewer in three consecutive starts. He'll next set his sights toward improving on a career-worst 6.59 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 31:17 K:BB over 41 innings in a road matchup with the first-place Rays in pitcher-friendly Tampa Bay.

Lukes hits 2-run HR in 11th, Scherzer into 10th place all-time in Ks as Blue Jays beat Phillies7-5

Nathan Lukes hit a two-run home run in the 11th inning and the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 7-5 on Saturday night
AUGUST 9 • Associated Press
Top-10 all time in strikeouts Scherzer did not factor into the decision Saturday against the Phillies, allowing two runs on five hits while striking out four across 5.1 innings. He did not issue a walk.
Impact Scherzer turned back the clock in Philadelphia, keeping the Phillies off the board the first five innings. His punchout of Kyle Schwarber in the sixth was his fourth of the game, and it moved Scherzer up to 10th in the all-time leaderboard with 3,516 career strikeouts, surpassing Walter Johnson. Unfortunately for Scherzer, the good times were short-lived after he gave up back-to-back solo home runs to Trea Turner and Bryce Harper, leading to the right-hander being pulled. In what is likely Scherzer's last season, he needs 18 more strikeouts to match Gaylord Parry for ninth on the all-time Ks leaderboard. Scherzer's next start is scheduled for next week at the Rogers Centre against the Yankees.

Sunday's effort marked Scherzer's third quality start in eight outings this season, his first since April 18. Overall, the veteran right-hander sports a 7.92 ERA with a 1.63 WHIP and 23:15 K:BB across 30.2 innings this year. Scherzer's currently slated to face the Cubs on the road his next time out.
