dodgers pulled him lmfao hahahahah

people wonder why the sport is dying. baseball is a slog, but it's built on moments like that. bottom of the 9th, 2 outs, or a great play, or one of the other moments that make the game so beautiful

perfect game and you pull him.

im not saying it's the wrong decision in a vacuum; i understand spring training was short and you're protecting your nine-figure investment and the analytics and sabermetrics justify it. but for baseball as a whole, this, today, is why the game is dying.

Baseball sucks. Theyve made it impossible to watch. MLB will die slowly and theyll have nobody to blame but themselves. Their streaming deals make no sense.

Padres pulled their starter in the first two games when they had a no hitter going.

Really bit them in the first game when their closer immediately lost the game in the bottom of the 9th right after they pulled their starter

its his first start of the season, though he appeared to be coasting along by only throwing 80 pitches, a lot of these pitchers arent fully stretched out. its not worth risking a long term
injury for a perfect game.

dodgers are still in position to win so its moot.

dodgers have championship aspirations, only fans of loser teams care about a no hitter/perfect game a week into the season.

Baseball is sadly forgetting it's a game of entertainment.

People that like baseball care about no hitters and perfect games. What a ridiculous thing to say. A good game is a good game.

Yeah, it's early in the season, so they don't want to take any chances. I think Sean Manaea had a no-hitter going through six a few days ago, got pulled, and the reliever gave up a hit immediately. Sad!

the dodgers are about championships, their manager went on record and guaranteed that they will win it all this season, they dont care about a no hitter in april, lol.

maybe a team like the rangers who dont have any postseason aspirations care about something like that since theyll be out of it just after the all star break.

Did Kershaw get pissed? I'd be ready to throw hands at my manager if they tried to pull me in the middle of a perfect game, especially with only 2 innings to go and only 80 pitches in. wtf
