Police Escort Max Scherzer Look-Alike Through Nationals World Series Parade

Nationals fans thought they were meeting Max Scherzer on the street at the World Series parade.

The Nationals celebrated their first World Series championship with an epic parade through the streets of Washington, D.C. on Saturday. Fans even thought ace Max Scherzer was walking through the crowd until they did a double-take.

Police escorted Mad Max's doppelganger Kevin Kramer through the streets after fans started crowding around him. According to WJLA, fans regularly mistake Kramer for Scherzer and ask him for autographs and photos. Despite Kramer's eyes being the same color, fans didn't seem to notice and were giddy to see "Max" at the parade.

A police officer told me they were helping get this guy through the crowd because a lot of people thought he looked like a very well-known player. What do you think? pic.twitter.com/q0Vp9yq9UL

The real Max Scherzer was indeed at the parade and danced atop Washington's bus with the custom championship belt the Nationals received from WWE.
