Fans seven in Wednesday's win Scherzer (2-0) picked up the win in Wednesday's 9-6 victory over the Phillies, allowing one run on five hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out seven.

Impact The 37-year-old looked shaky early, walking the bases loaded with one out in the first inning, but he escaped the jam without any damage and found a groove. Scherzer threw 96 pitches before exiting, 66 for strikes, and got more than enough run support to secure his second straight win as a Met. He has a 3.27 ERA and 13:4 K:BB through 11 innings to begin the season, and Scherzer will look to keep rolling in his next start, scheduled for Tuesday at home against the Giants.

Quality start against Nats Scherzer (1-0) picked up the win Friday against the Nationals, allowing three runs on three hits and a walk over six innings in a 7-3 victory. He struck out six.

Impact A Josh Bell homer in the fourth inning accounted for most of the offense his former club got off Scherzer, but he was otherwise sharp in his Mets debut and didn't seem bothered by the hamstring tweak that cost him the Opening Day assignment. The veteran right-hander got lifted after 80 pitches (53 strikes), but he could work a little deeper Wednesday in Philadelphia.
