"The finest stretch of pitching in baseball history began on June 6, 1968 when Bob Gibson shut out Houston on three hits to even his record at 5-5.
From that night until August, Bob Gibson allowed three runs in 102 innings.
THREE runs!
In TWO months!
And one of the runs scored on a wild pitch. “They called it a wild pitch,” Bob Gibson corrects believing it should have been a passed ball and an unearned run.
From the end of May to Aug. 23, Bob Gibson won 15 consecutive games and threw 10 shutouts.
At one point he was 15-5 with a 0.94 ERA. When he shut out Philadelphia for 10 innings Sept. 2 to win his 20th game, he lowered his ERA to 0.99.
Bob Gibson started 34 games and completed 28 of them.
No team ever drove him off the mound.
The only time he left a game was for a pinch hitter.
Had Gibson been given just a bit better support, he might have come close to 30 victories.
As it was, the Cardinals scored only 12 runs in his nine losses and just four in his first five.
He also was the victim of Gaylord Perry’s no-hitter."

🤍Good Morning Prayer Warriors🤍
🕊️By God’s grace, we press on. This life is wrought with difficulties and at some point our perseverance will falter. GODs grace has no end, He will always offer us the endurance and encouragement we need.
Sometimes that encouragement comes from other believers, a scripture, a prayer, a hug and a cheerful smile🕊️
Thank You LORD for my wonderful Christian friends who love me unconditionally and hold me up to You. In Jesus name Amen 🕊️🤍❤️✨🤍
Iranian missiles aren't the only thing coming at Israel from the east. This morning the sun rose majestically over the mountains of Jordan & the Creator reminded us He is still here...with us. Good morning Lord!
Iran just blew Oman oil storage.
It issued a threat to Doha.
And they are trying all day to strike Dimona in israel, and we all know what they were targeting. They have drawn blood in Israel tonight.
Simply, Iran is now going full Samson option
But keep in mind, it means they know it’s the Samson moment. It means they know their days are numbered and they want to tear down everything they can on the way down. Like Hitler ordered Paris detonated (his commanders didn’t follow the order) or in the end said let Berlin be destroyed.
Probably the wrong saying for that part of the world, but it’s part the approaching Samson Option moment and part a Hail Mary pass that in the destruction, they hope we will lose nerve.
In that vein, I strongly suspect they will lash out at the weak link from which the lost nerves are likeliest to come: Europe itself, such as Rome or Paris.
But israel was wounded tonight. It will not back off. Nor do I suspect President Trump would. And the Gulf Arabs are at their last molecule of patience with Iran. So from Muscat to Jerusalem, a consensus to go all the way no holds-barred has emerged. Europe won’t be heard if it loses nerve.
Like the Iranian people themselves, the greatest victims, the mood is emerging everywhere to just do whatever it now takes to bring the tyrants down as fast as possible.
It often looks darkest before dawn, but one thing is clear; these are acts of despair by a dying gang of tyrants, not the product of confidence or sage strategy.
Good night friends 🙏✝️

John Solomon breaks down the bombshell story that @JustTheNews broke earlier today about the FBI was running multiple investigations into Trump.
We all know about Crossfire Hurricane and Arctic Frost, but Kash Patel’s FBI has uncovered that there were multiple investigations into Trump under Chris Wray’s FBI.
The FBI literally treated the duly elected President as a national security threat for 9 years. Let that sink in! The man the majority of Americans voted into office was treated like a national security threat by the people trying to cling on to power.
“From the moment President Trump secured the nomination in the summer of 2016, to raised his hand for his 2nd inauguration in 2025, he was subjected to four straight consecutive counterintelligence probes… the FBI… essentially treated the man twice elected president, as a national security threat. That’s what a counterintelligence investigation is.”
The four probes (that we know about) are broken out as follows:
1. Crossfire Hurricane (Russian collusion hoax)
2. Round River (treated anyone who looked into Hunter Biden as a national security threat)
3. Plasmic Echo (investigation into Susie Wiles and Kash Patel)
4. Arctic Frost (investigation into Trump & MAGA supporters for the 2020 election)
The levels of corruption just keeps getting worse & worse as we find out more & more. There was no red line they would not cross to get Trump.
People need to go to jail for this - and they will.
