PORT ST. LUCIE — By Noah Syndergaard’s standards, perhaps, Saturday was a good day.

“I always think it’s great to struggle,’’ Syndergaard said following his second outing of the spring. “It separates the men from boys in how you react and how you make adjustments during a game. You recognize you don’t have your best stuff and you have to really pitch.’’

If that’s the case, Syndergaard figures to have gotten quite a bit out of his outing, during which he walked five in 2²/u2083 innings.
