Another quote from Shelton on pulling Jones after five innings: “He’s thrown I think 91, 85 and 80 [pitches], so we knew that the first time he went on five that we were going to back him down. This kid is really important to us, as anybody that watched will see. It was one of those things where we knew where he was going to be. He was really good. When you’re really good and you make a decision like that, people are going to wonder what’s going on. He’s healthy, he’s good but it was something we had going in, that was predetermined.”

@_NoahHiles Wow. That is an astounding number of pitches! Not really. Baseball is a joke.
