Blue Jays try to continue win streak, play Tigers

When Toronto Blue Jays starter Eric Lauer appeared with a busted lip before cameras last week, none were to surprised when he accused teammate Max Scherzer of giving him “six stitches” for messing with him on his start day. The unwritten rule stands across the game: DO NOT talk to the starting pitcher on his start day.
Max Scherzer had one of his best outings of the season Sunday against the Detroit Tigers, racking up 11 strikeouts in 7.0 innings before the Toronto Blue Jays' bullpen fell apart.
The Toronto Blue Jays are rolling, and they're keeping things light by pranking the media at the expense of Max Scherzer.
Gleyber Torres hit a three-run homer off ex-Tiger Max Scherzer and the Tigers beat the Blue Jays, 10-4, to snap a 6-game skid.
Scherzer spoke out on Friday in defense of Marco Rocco, a 12-year-old Little League player in New Jersey. A judge recently lifted a suspension against Rocco, who was suspended earlier this week for flipping his bat in celebration.
