Most athletes are known for being quite superstitious with hockey goalies and MLB pitchers being at the top of the list with their weird way of going about things and it looks like Scherzer is no different.
After Scherzer's first game with the Blue Jays manager John Schneider stated the team realized that he is not a fan of giving high fives when returning to the dugout in between innings.
