The Mariners just pulled off a HUGE series steal in Boston, jumping to a perfect 2-0 record in September after absolutely rocking the Red Sox! This isn’t just another win; this is a statement after wrapping up *one of the worst months in franchise history* with a brutal five-game losing streak. We needed this kind of fire, and the Emerald City is buzzing!
September’s Perfect Start After a Nightmare Month
Remember that brutal five-game losing streak that closed out August? Yeah, it was *rough*. But September feels totally different! The M’s kicked things off by absolutely torching the Red Sox in Lazaro Montes’ spectacular Major League debut, where he even signed the Green Monster scoreboard! And today, they took the series, moving to a pristine 2-0 in the final month. With only 23 games left and our boys sitting nine games under .500, it’s gonna take something incredibly close to perfection to claw back. But this perfect 2-0 start? This is *exactly* the momentum we needed!
Bryce Miller’s Legendary Bounce-Back in Boston
Today’s 9-6 victory brought seriously good news, especially considering who was on the bump: Bryce Miller. It was his first start in 10 days, a crucial break after being moved to the bullpen. He never actually made a relief appearance, thanks to an Emerson Hancock injury, but that time off seemed to be exactly what he needed. We were all desperately hoping to see the Miller from his first few outings of 2026, the guy with absolutely electric velocity who looked like a tip-top pitcher. Because honestly, we haven’t seen that version in *months*. His last two starts were a nightmare, with the Mariners losing by a combined score of 41-2, partially because he couldn’t even make it through five innings! And to top it off, he was facing Patrick Sandoval, that “not-very-good-but-crafty lefty” who has given the Mariners fits all season, especially with Weston Wilson and Jhonny Pereda in the lineup. But Miller came through, the offense clicked, and the M’s won 9-6! What a monumental turnaround!
The Fight Continues: Emerald City, Let’s Go!
This massive 9-6 triumph over Boston? It means the M’s are not just 2-0 in September; they *did* steal that series. They *are* fighting tooth and nail to climb out of that August hole. Every game from here on out is a battle, a chance to claw our way back into contention. This win is exactly what the Emerald City needed to get fired up and believe! Let’s keep that momentum rolling and that perfect September alive! You can catch all the action on Mariners.TV or tune into Ol’ Reliable for the next one. Let’s go, M’s!
