Noah Syndergaard and Yoenis Cespedes Hit An Imaginary Blunt To Celebrate Noah Hitting Two Dingers

Last night, Noah Syndergaard became the second pitcher in Mets franchise history to hit two home runs in one game. Syndergaard, who was just one day shy of the one-year anniversary of his major league debut, hit one solo homer in his first plate appearance and a three-run dinger in his next–accounting for all four runs in the Mets 4-3 win over the Dodgers.

Noah commented on taking Kenta Maeda yard twice after the game:

“I don’t think I ever hit two home runs when I played little league. To be able to hit two home runs in a big league ballgame, especially with a pitcher like Maeda up there, it’s an awesome experience.”

 

Noah buddied up with his teammate Yoenis Cespedes to share a celebratory blunt after the game. And likely a real one after the game.

ALL THE COOL KIDS ARE DOING IT!

Matt’s love of writing was born during a sixth grade assembly when it was announced that his essay titled “Why Drugs Are Bad” had taken first prize in D.A.R.E.’s grade-wide contest. The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
