Good morning!

It was Paul Skenes day, and something that has never happened before on Paul Skenes day occurred: he lost. There were four shutouts around baseball last night. There’s some not great Mike Trout news, some not great news for the skidding Mariners, and Taylor Walls tries to explain how his pretending to be Donald Trump out on the base paths does not mean he is supporting Donald Trump even though he’s totally supporting Donald Trump.

In Other Stuff, J.D. Vance is not impressing anyone, the Black lady is making the Republicans be racist, Nate Silver’s ethics seem a bit shaky, you can buy an Italian villa for one Euro, and a great show is, at long last, going to be available for streaming.
