streak

Westlake was unable to rally in the bottom of the seventh, ending a streak of six straight home games in which the Warriors won on walk-offs in their final at bat.

This independent streak is quintessentially American, we like to tell ourselves, and it can expand to malignant extremes.

Those two losses came against Ukraine's Usyk, who ended Fury's 15-year unbeaten streak as a professional in their first contest last May before winning the December rematch.

At home, however, the same team is almost as unbeatable as the L.A. fire department, a streak that has buoyed both the Kings and the firefighters.

The present-day Pacific Northwest has a prominent survivalist streak along with a healthy number of, shall we say, weird faith clubs.
