To say that New York Mets right-hander Max Scherzer has dominated the San Diego Padres throughout his 16 seasons in the majors would be an understatement.
In 18 career starts against the Padres, Scherzer is 7-3 with a 2.76 ERA, a 0.910 WHIP and a .185 opponents' batting average while averaging more than 12 strikeouts per nine innings. The results have been even better in San Diego, where he is 3-1 with a 2.61 ERA across seven starts.
What followed couldn't happen today. Padres relief pitcher Daniel Camarena hit a grand slam off Scherzer in what turned into a seven-run inning, and San Diego went on to complete the comeback to win 9-8. Over his first five starts this season, Scherzer had a 5.56 ERA, although he did shut out the Padres on one hit and three walks with six strikeouts over five innings to earn the win in New York on April 10.
