Scherzer Finds Groove in 7-1 Tampa Bay Triumph
The Tampa Bay Bandits converted a terrific effort from starter Max Scherzer into a win over the Georgia Bulldogs at Tony Gwynn Memorial Field. The Bandits won the game by a final score of 7-1. Tampa Bay has now won 4 in a row.

Scherzer pitched a complete game for Tampa Bay. The right-hander, who calls Saint Louis, Michigan, his home, racked up 11 Ks, while allowing just 3 hits. Bulldogs hitters could not touch his fastball -- nor any other pitch, for that matter.

"Max was pounding the zone," said Tampa Bay manager George Hoffman.
