Mariners announcer, Dave Sims warned us to, “buckle up” after Franklin Gutierrez hit a long home run to almost straight away center field at Fenway Park last night; his warning should have been heeded, as the M’s veteran would go full throttle for his breakout game of 2016 and arguably his most impressive performance of his eleven year career.
As previously mentioned, it didn’t take long for the Mariners outfielder to put his mark on the game. Following a Ketel Marte single, the Venezuelan-born Gutierrez stepped up to the plate.
