A guiding tenet of mine for a long time.

The Essence of Hedgey.

But not by 25 feet wide.

Starters Michael Lorenzen, José Ureña, Andrew Heaney, and Jon Gray have a combined 1.82 ERA over the last four games. Texas is 0-4.

Tonight's Thunder/Mavericks game was the first playoff game in NBA history where each team attempted at least 20 free throws and one team shot 95% or higher on FTA while the other shot 55% or lower on FTA.

The dull kick-in-the-junk shittiness of this feeling that the Mavs provided tonight and the Rangers have for a week is what makes winning the World Series as meaningful and amazing as it was. These lows define that high.

But Skin, I’m told the free throw edge didn’t matter tonight! I’m so confused.

Hell yes, Stars.

11 missed free throws vs. 1 missed free throw.

Timmy is Leody.

Right. But you’ll see that happen.

Wyatt Johnston.

Doli trying to tie a 7-0 game with one swing (and with two strikes).

The Astros are about to be within 5 games of the Rangers.

I’m seriously considering changing up my July predictions for this week’s story.

Also: The Texas Rangers won the World Series.

Right now nobody. Leo is hitting. But Carter eventually. And I trust Jankowski more — but not while Leo is hitting.

The first one is a little more excusable. You’d like your CF to be able to make that one on a line without a hop from that shallow (because of the mound) but that will happen. The second one….yeah, that was brutal.

Amazing.

Worst CF throw I’ve seen in a looooooong time.

Leo. Wow.
