Longhorns lose incoming freshman as Gavin Fein signs first MLB deal
The Rangers have officially signed first-round Draft pick Gavin Fein, along with fourth-rounder Mason McConnaughey, fifth-rounder Ben Abeldt and 18th rounder Julius Sanchez The Texas Longhorns have lost one of their top incoming freshman to an MLB team. On Monday night, infielder Gavin Fein signed his first rookie contract. His decision came as no surprise, considering Fein was selected 12th overall in the MLB Draft a little more than a week ago. The Great Oak High School product has the skills to be one of the best players in his draft class. In Fein, the Rangers added one of the most talented high school bats in the country. For Team USA in the 18U World Cup qualifier in Panama, Fein shined with a pair of hits and RBIs. Just like he has done at every level, Fein was hard to keep off the base paths. As Fein has made headlines, scouts have been impressed with his bat speed and ability to produce line drives. While he struggled at times in the spring, he still has a very high ceiling. That could include more power as he develops in the minors. Over the past few days, multiple players with Longhorn ties have begun their professional careers. That includes Kaleb Freeman and Xavier Mitchell, both of whom will not make it to Austin. Mitchell signed with the Angels, and Freeman is taking his talents to the White Sox system. While finding a replacement for Fein will be no easy task, the Longhorns have been busy in the transfer portal this offseason. They will also have a few returning veterans to rely on, such as Dylan Volantis, who are eager to build on an SEC championship. As Fein begins his professional career, he will be a player to watch. The Longhorns had high hopes for what he could accomplish in Austin, just like the Rangers. If Fein becomes the player he is expected to be, the Rangers will have a potent bat to rely on for years to come.

Longhorns baseball commits Gavin Fein, Kayson Cunningham drafted in 1st round of MLB Draft
Two of the centerpieces of Texas baseball coach Jim Schlossnagle's 2025 recruiting class are likely going pro before ever arriving onto the 40 Acres. Both Gavin Fein and Kayson Cunningham were drafted in the first round of the 2025 MLB Draft. Third baseman Fein was drafted No. 12 by the Texas Rangers. Cunningham, a shortstop, was drafted No. 18 by the Arizona Diamondbacks. Fein, of The Temecula (Calif.) Great Oaks, has been committed to the Longhorns for nearly four years. As a senior, he hit .358 with 16 RBIs and five home runs. In 2024, his brother Dylan was drafted in the seventh round by the A's. Cunningham, a San Antonio Johnson product, committed to the Longhorns in June of 2024. He hit an astounding .509 as a senior, with 27 RBIs and 39 runs scored. He also stole 21 bases on 25 attempts. Cunningham was both the Gatorade Player of the Year and USA Baseball Player of the Year. Neither player is expected to end up playing for the Longhorns now. First round money in the MLB Draft is higher than any college baseball player could make via NIL. Follow us on X (formerly Twitter) at @LonghornsWire.

The top London theatre shows according to our critics
What is it? Transferring from the Open Air Theatre after an acclaimed run last summer, rising star US director Jordan Fein's take on the classic shtetl-set musical transfers to the Barbican ahead of a UK tour. Where is it? Barbican Centre. How much is it? £25-£165. Why go? Fein masterfully balances the musical's two sides – the stand-up-style humour and the dark forshadowing of the Holocaust – by playing it as a sort of absurdist clown show. US star Adam Dannheisser is excellent as a restrained, dignifiede take on milkman protagonist Teyve.

Under the banks' towers, Frankfurt's humble water houses bring the city together
FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) — Frankfurt has become Germany's financial capital, known for the country's only high-rise skyline. But look closer to the ground and you'll find a tradition that brings rich and poor, bankers and punks, together. The humble 'Wasserhäuschen,' or little water houses, have been a distinctive feature of the city since they started springing up in the second half of the 19th century. Back when drinking unboiled tap water wasn't advisable, the little kiosks offered bottles of mineral water. They encouraged workers, with the city's approval, to drink affordable water rather than beer and schnapps. They thrived as they weren't subject to the official closing hours imposed on shops. And they were useful supply stations again in the immediate aftermath of the destruction of World War II. These days, there's more on offer at the water houses: a quick beer, candy, the newspaper, cigarettes, sometimes cafe service, with tables and the odd sofa on the sidewalk. Laura Poellath, a 27-year-old student who works at the 'Fein' water house, says the little kiosks are 'like a living room in the city.' 'The people are very varied, from young to old, all the different groups are here,' she says. 'Water houses are social meeting points,' says Hubert Gloss, who offers tours of the houses that are spread around the city. 'They are accessible; everyone is welcome here, it's a democratic place ... without these meeting points, the city would lose something in human terms.' There were once 800 of the freestanding kiosks, but their numbers have diminished as a result of new building and other factors, Gloss says. City authorities say there are now about 300, most of them leased by breweries or distributors of drinks to their operators. Photographer Stefan Hoening says today's water houses are a place where 'everyone, no matter where they come from and no matter what their pay grade, can come together and feel at ease without being judged.' 'That's the good thing about water houses,' the 42-year-old says. 'With kiosks, you usually go there, buy something and go back home. Here, people from all the different classes meet.'
