You’ll forgive me if I’m a little briefer than usual on this one. Been a bit of a long week at the Smith household. Couple that with a fairly predictable lopsided game, a quick turnaround to another day game, and now entering the final 20 games of 2021, that’s a good recipe for some quick hitter points and then hitting the numbers.
First and most obvious to me: Surely I’m more broken up about it than he is, but Kyle Hendricks predictably came up short again on an effort to win number 15. Once the team went into “wait ‘til next year” mode, it was pretty obvious that anywhere near 20 was a pipe dream.
