The Mets desperately need good news on the injury front, and they got some on Wednesday. Noah Syndergaard made his first trip to the mound since September of 2019 — and he looked good.
Syndergaard, who is recovering from Tommy John surgery, retired the first 11 batters he faced for St. Lucie. His fastball touched 95 and his breaking ball induced ground balls.
Take a look at @Noahsyndergaard's first rehab outing:
4 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 5 K
44 pitches, 36 strikesAND he retired the first 11 batters he faced.
