Scherzer Shuts Down Mariners in Shutout | MLB News

Max Scherzer delivered a legendary performance, tossing a seven-inning shutout with 10 strikeouts and just one hit allowed — his highest strikeout total of the season — to lead the Toronto Blue Jays to a 7-0 demolition of the Seattle Mariners. The win snapped a 23-game losing streak for the Mariners and marked Scherzer’s first victory since March, propelling him past Gaylord Perry on the all-time strikeout list (3,535 Ks, ninth all-time). Home runs from Alejandro Kirk and Kazuma Okamoto sealed the deal, while the bullpen locked down the final innings. This was the Blue Jays’ 10th shutout of the year — a testament to their pitching depth. Both teams gear up for Monday’s next series: Mariners vs. Red Sox, Blue Jays vs. Guardians.
