  1. Great outing from Framber! Hopefully this builds his confidence back up for October!

    Take the silver boot tomorrow!

    #FTR

  2. Framber almost framboozled **again**, but it was not meant to be.

    Still an incredible outing and fortunate that Yordan awoke from his slumber (fastest to 150 HRs in team history) to give us the insurance runs to ensure we still won this game tonight.

  3. Win tomorrow win the Boot.

    Sad we couldn’t get to 18 No-Hitters All Time, maybe Framber will get one next August.

  4. Man, I’m sad Framber didn’t get it but glad they let him try til the end. Here’s to hoping that outing and Yordan’s homer breathes some new life into our dugout.

  5. Man, I so badly wanted him to get that no hitter but you can’t take away what he did here tonight what a great showing from Framber

  6. So so close!! The boys needed this today 👍

  7. This win doesn’t feel like a win idk why. Framber was so close to the no hitter 😭.

  8. We won. That’s what matters. The Mariners will get shout and we’ll pull closer.

  9. Exactly what we needed from Framber, and offense showed encouraging signs. Take the series and the boot tomorrow. As always FTR

  10. imagine this game rn if yordan does not spank that insurance homer ;-; insane shit. what a game.

  11. Game plan for tomorrow- don’t let us into a situation where the rangers can totally ruin our vibes down to their last AB😅🥲

  12. Man Framber pitched his arm off. Great showing! Another save for Hader ( even though he almost gave us a heart attack). Yordon fastest to 150 HR! Talk about a much needed win!

  13. Fuck Corey Seager

    Amazing outing for Framber, he just got gassed at the end, but at least he saved the bullpen.

    Also the bags are still kind of broken and the worst part about tonight isn’t Frambers no no being ruined, it’s the fact that without Yordan homer we would be be going to extras right now.
