Noah Syndergaard made history as he became the first Mets pitcher ever, and the first pitcher period since Bob Welch on June 17, 1983, to throw a complete-game shutout and hit a home run in a 1-0 game. On the back of Syndergaard’s historic afternoon, the Mets were able to secure a series split with the Reds and get ready to head to Milwaukee on a high note.
In what was absolutely his best start of the season, and maybe his career, Noah Syndergaard struck out ten Reds and only allowed four singles en route to a the third complete game, and second shutout, of his career.
