'21 RHP Jacob Blackmon (Northwest Florida State College) started on the mound for the Panthers and attacked hitters with a live fastball. At 6-2, 175 pounds, the senior worked 88-91 consistently in his outing, and bumped 92 mph in the 1st inning. It was a heavy dosage of fastballs in this look, overpowering hitters with an electric fastball. Command was a bit spotty at times to start off, but he really locked it back in during the later innings of work to navigate his way through four scoreless frames. It’s an aggressive, quick arm that worked out of a few jams. Finished with six strikeouts, while only allowing one hit and walking four.
