Tong Shines in Strong Minor League Start | New York Mets News

Jonah Tong delivers a dominant outing for Triple-A Syracuse, striking out nine and allowing just one run over four and two-thirds innings in an 8-1 win. The Mets’ top prospect showcased elite command with his fastball, changeup, and cutter, throwing 91 pitches — 54 for strikes. He navigated tough innings, including a flawless third inning (K’s on all three batters) and worked out of trouble in the second. After a rough June, Tong’s back-to-back starts allowing two runs or fewer have pushed his season ERA down to 5.59 — exactly the kind of progress the Mets are banking on as he continues his ascent.
