Neil Walker hit his first two home runs for Miami, a three-run shot off Noah Syndergaard and a solo drive off Seth Lugo.

Robinson Cano homered for the first time with New York and Jeff McNeil homered for his first hit of spring training. Both came off Dan Straily, who pitched 3 1/3 innings in his third start.

Syndergaard allowed six hits and four runs, striking out eight. He didn't walk anyone after issuing five in his last start. New closer Edwin Diaz gave up a hit in a scoreless inning.
