Back on March 9, a New York Mets fan named Jake from Raleigh, North Carolina, decided to make a small wager with ace Noah Syndergaard on Twitter. If the Mets ace could strike out at least 10 St. Louis Cardinals on Opening Day, he’d dye his “ugly dark brown hair blonde.”

Syndergaard delivered, tossing six innings of six-hit, four-run ball in a 9-4 Mets victory at Citi Field.
