It came as little surprise, but Washington Nationals ace Max Scherzer was selected to the 2015 National League All-Star team Monday.
His selection to this year's team, which resulted from a players' vote, is the third in his career; yet, he reacted to the news as though it were his first selection.
"It's awesome. It's one of the highest honors in the game to be selected for the All-Star Game," Scherzer said. "This is my third game, and every single one of them means something special."
