3 years agoWashington Nationals starting pitcher Max Scherzer (leg) exited Friday's start in the middle of an at-bat against the second batter of the game with an apparent leg injury, according to Jesse Dougherty of the Washington Post. Scherzer was seen hopping off the mound after throwing a pitch inside to make it a full count against Giants first baseman Brandon Belt, and was also seen wincing while trying to stretch out his leg on the mound. He threw one warmup pitch with the trainer on the mound before exiting the game. There's no word yet on the injury or severity, as managers should keep a close eye out for further updates through tonight.--Michael Grennell - RotoBaller
