Just look at my past few pirates ratings. This game went exactly as i expected. Too many blown chances. Saddest part? We had a perfect game going thru 6 innings… and we lose 3-0. That is the most pirates result I could imagine kms

@NoMoreFielders

I’d say Jared Jones had a 50/50 shot of earning the perfecto had he stayed in. We’re really in a dark spot having seen NOW TWO (2) pitchers getting pulled in the middle of a deep perfect game run within a few days of each other.

Don't understand why in the world you would take Jared Jones out here. 6 innings perfect. You just saw it happen 2 days earlier with Eury Perez, taken out of a perfect game and the Marlins nearly blow it. Now in this game, 0-0 when you take Jones out, and they lose. I understand they want to be cautious of Jones pitch count coming off a recent injury, but guess what? You have an entire All-Star break coming up! If he needs some extra days of rest after throwing a ton of pitches, he gets those extra days during the All-Star break! It's incredibly infuriating how managers take away chances at history.

Dang, can't pull the guy pitching a perfect game at ~75 pitches! I mean I guess if he got hurt it would've been a shame but dang.
