Video surfaces of Noah Syndergaard possibly using sticky substance
It didn’t seem to give him a noticeable advantage — other than not plunking any Phillies — but internet sleuths believe Noah Syndergaard may have been using pine tar or something sticky to get a grip on the baseball Monday night in Philadelphia.
A video is circulating of Syndergaard digging his index and middle fingers into the heel of his glove before touching the ball during the Mets’ 7-6 win over the Phillies.
