Noah Syndergaard bounces back with dominant performance in Angels’ win over Rangers

Seven weeks into the season, it seems fair to assume that Angels pitcher Noah Syndergaard will not be returning to the days of Thor, the triple-digit fastball he threw for the New York Mets from 2015 to 2019 failing to make the cross-country trip to Anaheim.

ARLINGTON, Texas — Baseball, conventionally, isn’t an instant gratification sport. It’s a long season; a grind that’s glorified. It’s 162 games, and after Friday night’s series-opening loss to the Atlanta Braves, the Rangers were only 20 games through it.
