Is Max Scherzer Jewish?
Fans frequently assume that Max Scherzer is Jewish based on his appearance, which places him in a small minority of Jewish athletes competing in the Major Leagues in 2016. In 2016, there were just nine Jewish athletes in the Major Leagues.
In 2012, Scherzer was referred to as Jewish in an article published in The Jewish Journal. A story published by the Washington Post in the most recent year, 2020, states that Scherzer does not identify as Jewish. In point of fact, the surname Scherzer derives from German, and it may be connected to a family that is descended from Scherz, which is a small city located in Switzerland.
Because of his intensity and fierce competition, while he is playing, people call him “Mad Max,” which is a reference to a fictional character with the same name.
The MLB star is married to Erica May. The couple dated for eight years before tying the knot in 2013. Erica and Max have four children from the marriage and reside in Jupiter, Florida.
