Nicknamed for the Norse god of thunder — Thor — lightning struck twice for Noah Syndergaard. He hit two home runs at Dodger Stadium on Wednesday night, providing all of his own offense in a 4-3 victory as the New York Mets beat the Dodgers.
Syndergaard became the first pitcher with a multi-homer game since Micah Owings did it for the Arizona Diamondbacks at Turner Field in Atlanta on Aug. 18, 2007.
