Fans have far more relevant pearls to clutch.

Famous Pearl necklace purchased at an auction
Worn by June Cleaver on 50’s sitcom hit ‘Leave it to Beaver’

June was probably the only ‘stay at home ‘ Mom in that era that did her daily housework wearing a dress , makeup, and a pearl necklace. Looked first class running her Hoover vacuum cleaner in that outfit.

P N?
Host family in college gave the pearl necklace to him. Weird gift for us old folks but whatever. He wears it. It breaks sometimes. If he thinks it's lucky fine. He's left handed and Californian.

Believe she also mentioned he is a fan of Dora the Explorer.
Again, STL fans have far more relevant concerns.

...I don't know anything about the "pearl necklace" controversy, but I am way more concerned about a much more grave clothing dressing faux pas by a member of Quinn's family. Let me explain...

While Dani was interviewing Quinn's family in the stands, I noticed that his mother and sister were wearing Cardinal caps, but his Dad was NOT! He had on a dark blue sweat-stained ball cap, with the letters "CA" on the front. It must be his "lucky" cap or something, as I know of no other reason why he didn't have a Cardinal baseball cap on. Dani didn't question him about that glaring omission, and that was a failure on her part, as the controversy could have been explained or headed off at that time.

While Quinn pitched a credible first MLB game, even an EXCELLENT one, but alas, he did not get a win. If his Dad's cap was his "Lucky" one, it also failed to deliver. The Baseball Gods were offended as well, I'm afraid, and Quinn's first MLB decision was just Karma for his father's visible unsupport. Maybe his Dad shoulda worn the pearl necklace...

He had a cards shirt on

I believe it was an Chicago American giants negro league hat.

...True, and that is admirable, but a shirt doesn't carry the gravity of a baseball cap.

...From Gemini AI
..."It looks like you're replying "yes" on the STLtoday forums about Quinn Mathews' dad wearing that Chicago American Giants hat!

The team's classic dark blue cap with the interlocking white "CA" logo is definitely a legendary piece of baseball history—and honestly, it's a pretty great choice for a game, even if it caused a little stir among the traditional Cardinals fans in the stands" (Emphasis mine)
I agree with the important history of the Chicago American Giants, but wearing THAT hat in THIS game...was definitely not the time or place for that.

If he pitches like he did today, he can have them coming out of his orifices, as far as I'm concerned.

“… a shirt doesn’t carry the gravity of a baseball cap.”

Well.

I had no idea.

How and when was this determined?

If you are visible and wear something that virtually no other player wears you will get noticed and comments. I did not read anything negative. People wear things to get noticed. I think the bling others wear is dumb as 99.99% of men do not wear it but their choice. I had mild interest in why it came off mid-game but only because it was yet another horrible game.
