The Toronto Blue Jays had their first sweep of the season yesterday as they took down the Washington Nationals but the best part of the game came when Blue Jays fans finally caught a glimpse of Max Scherzer's alter ego Mad Max.
The Blue Jays ran through the Nationals this week with quite ease as they won by multiple runs in every game of the series with a 5-2, 5-3 and 4-2 win as they now get ready to face the New York Mets.
Blue Jays pitcher Max Scherzer snaps on the home plate umpire
During the second inning of yesterday's game, Ernie Clement slid for home plate to try and give the Blue Jays a 2-0 lead and he was called out as it was a tight play at the plate but the call then went under review.
After reviewing the play, the call on the field stayed which had the Blue Jays dugout flipping out including Scherzer who snapped despite not being in the game as he began to yell at the home plate umpire.
Mad Max Has entered Toronto someone tell Scherzer to not hurt his thumb please lmao #bluejays
Scherzer has been out for the last few days as he is still recovering from his thumb injury but clearly that has not stopped him from being passionate on the bench as it shows that he wants to win when we see emotions like that.
Fans absolutely loved the passion they saw from Scherzer snapping in the dugout as it shows just how invested he is, there is a reason he has won so much throughout his career.
You've got to love Max Scherzer losing his mind on the bench
This is exactly the type of passion the Blue Jays were missing last season which shows that signing Scherzer was great for the starting rotation but also great for the team's mentality.
Hopefully the Blue Jays will be able to get him back on the mound soon.
