1) Noah Syndergaard was dominant early before stumbling over his final two innings. The right-hander breezed through four scoreless frames, but was tagged for single runs in the fifth and sixth when he tossed 44 of his 90 pitches. Syndergaard (2-0) was charged with two runs -- one earned -- on five hits, two walks and a hit batsman with five strikeouts in six innings.
2) Adrian Gonzalez opened the scoring with an RBI single in the second. The Mets added another on Kevin Plawecki's double-play groundout. Jay Bruce chipped in with a run-scoring single in the third and Amed Rosario did the same in the seventh.
