Down on the Farm: 8/20/2015

AAA  Sacramento River Cats outlasted the New Orleans Zephyrs 4-3 in 14 innings:

Clayton Blackburn(RHP)- 6 IP, 8 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 4 K's, GO/AO= 10/1.  ERA= 3.26.

Blackburn is 6-0 with a 2.51 ERA over his last 10 starts.  5 of those have been QS's and he has not allowed more than 2 ER in any single start over that span.  His K rate is pedestrian, but he keeps the BB's down and he has a strong GO/AO.

  1. Great to see Blackburn having a good season after starting the year with the tragic passing of his brother. He's only 22 yrs old and hopefully he'll be ready to help the big club sometime next year.
