""I love it," said Scherzer. "This is what you play for. You want to have the ball in this situation, you want to be pitching in the post-season. Every game in the post-season's a must-win, so when you step on the field in these situations, you've got to bring it. You've got to have your A game.""
""I don't want to sit here and go backwards and blame injuries for any way I pitched. When I take the mound, I take the mound, and I have the attitude (that) I'm going to win no matter what.""
""I'm expecting Max to be Mad Max.""
Toronto rebounded with a 13-4 Game 3 win to stay alive in the ALCS and now faces Game 4 at T-Mobile Park. Max Scherzer is scheduled to start Game 4, marking his 26th postseason start and a start that could be his final one. Scherzer enters with a difficult 2025 season that included nearly three months on the injured list with right thumb inflammation, a 5-5 record, a 5.19 ERA, and 82 strikeouts. He has not pitched since September 24 due to neck pain per the manager, and he intends to compete without using injuries as excuses.
