Major League Baseball’s new pitch clock is either a godsend for the sport or ruining the game, depending on who you talk to. For New York Mets ace Max Scherzer, it was a little of both Friday.
Scherzer made news earlier this spring for saying he’d use that new clock to his advantage in order to “mess with the hitter’s timing.” That, combined with PitchCom technology that connects pitchers and catchers without the use of hand signals, gives the 15-year veteran a new edge to test when it comes to shutting down opposing offenses.
