What a second base really costs, and what cannot be put in figures

Provisional teaser for a numbers piece: what can be calculated, and what cannot.

Fixture composition

Provisional standfirst. A piece from The Numbers rubric that will later work with researched figures and here only marks their place in the layout.

Provisional text. Pieces in this rubric need room for tables, lists and interpretation. Until figures are researched, this is running text at a suitable length, so the switch between paragraph and list becomes visible.

What gets compared

  • Provisional item at the length of a real line
  • Provisional item, a little longer, so two-line entries can be checked
  • Provisional item
  • Provisional item
Caption (provisional).

What the numbers don’t say

Provisional ending. The most important paragraph of this rubric: what figures cannot settle. Four sentences that hold the tone without claiming anything.
