Syndergaard pitches one inning in rehab outing, says it was 'huge step'

Mets RHP Noah Syndergaard (lat) threw one inning for Low-A Gulf Coast Mets in his first rehab start.

Syndergaard allowed two runs -- both unearned -- on two hits while striking out two as well. He threw a total 18 pitches with 13 being strikes.

"Overall, I thought it was a really good day of work," Syndergaard said after the outing. "I got 18 quality pitches. My delivery felt really sound. It was a huge step in the right direction for me."
