Framber grinding! 83 pitches - 63 strikes thru 1 out in T 7th;
Ohtani 103-73 thru 7.

Left hamstring discomfort. No es bueno.

It was nice having him on the team. Maybe they can get him one of runners legs after the amputate

Hamstrings take about 4 to 6 weeks, I think.
Oofda!!

Framber just disected Trout

Some time between 2 days and 2 months. Hamstrings are a fucking mystery.

Framber was incredible tonight. Lets not fuck it up

With the dreaded ā€œdiscomfortā€ descriptor, I fear the higher end of that range.

Don’t you fillet a trout?

Pressly in to pitch the 9th.

Ohtani
and their 4 and 5 due.

Framber was as good as I’ve seen him in a long, long time. I know he has a complete game shutout so he had objectively better games, but to me it seems like this year’s fastball and tonight’s especially had more and better movement than what we’ve seen in past seasons.

Ohtani wild swing on a slider on the inside corner, strike 1. Same on strike 2, but a little more inside. Bounced, ball 1. Rendon, Renfroe due up after. Got him with a low and in curve. Absolutely ate his lunch.

1 out.

Rendon takes a curve for a strike, 0-1. Slider paints the top of the outside corner, strike 2. Fouls off a fastball, still 0-2. Rendon isn’t nearly as homeless looking as he was last year, fairly kempt beard. Takes a curve on the inside corner and Maldy dropped it, CALLED STRIKE THREE! 2 outs.

Renfroe fouls off a high heater, 0-1. Curve on the inside corner ripped to short DIVING CATCH BY PENA!

BALLGAME! FLASHING THE MUTHAFUCKIN LEATHER!

What a fucking game on bump

That was some 2022 Framer shit.

Your team is scuffling, lost a few in a row, on the road, going up against a division rival, facing off against their best…and you go 8 innings of 3-hit ball, with 12 punchouts. THAT’S being an ace.

I think he hurt it in the field. I thought he looked a little gimpy walking back to his position after charging that slow roller. Can’t recall the inning.

Let’s hope he’s right.

I liked seeing 2 hits for Bregman in the box score.

I loved seeing the W and 8 strong from Framber.

ETA: the Angels City Connect uniforms aren’t bad.
