Syndergaard did not factor in the decision Tuesday against the Giants. He allowed three runs on five hits and three walks while striking out four over 6.2 innings.
Syndergaard lost his chance at the win after being pulled with two outs in the seventh inning and a runner on first base, as Seth Lugo entered and gave up a single and a double to allow the run to score and tie the game 3-3. According to Mike Puma of the New York Post, manager Mickey Callaway indicated after the game he regretted the decision to remove Syndergaard. The 26-year-old will look to deliver a third straight quality start Sunday versus the Rockies.
