NY Post: Yankees pound Syndergaard early to silence Citi crowd, down Mets. "In his worst career home performance, Syndergaard allowed home runs to Carlos Beltran and Brian McCann, helping the Yankees take a 3-2 lead in this year’s Subway Series, with the finale awaiting Sunday night. The Mets’ magic number to clinch the NL East remained at eight after the Nationals defeated the Marlins 5-2 on Saturday night."

ESPN.com: "Beltran hit a three-run, second-deck home run on a 100 mph fastball from Noah Syndergaard in the first inning, Michael Pineda pitched his best game in two months and the Yankees beat the Mets 5-0 Saturday to rebound from an opening loss in the weekend Subway Series. Brian McCann added a two-run homer in the sixth, the Yankees' 200th home run this season, to quiet the sellout crowd of 43,630 at Citi Field on a sunny late-summer afternoon."
