Not that hard to pitch to? He had ONE bad series against Lebanon... And yes, it was very, very, bad. But that very same weekend he hit another homer, and the last time I checked he was hitting in the .430ish area I think, least thats what I have heard from my son. Also, you have to realize, he is gonna see peoples best stuff, and its almost comical watching how he gets pitched to every game. One team might challenge him with a heater, than boom, its gone. One team might throw all curves in the dirt, and he will draw 2 or 3 walks. I just think he tries to do too much sometimes and thats what gets him in the most trouble, because he does hit all these home runs im sure he thinks its what is expected of him. I mean he has great talent around him, and im sure Blackman will bounce back from this loss to Riverdale and sweep Oakland! Cant wait till Saturday as long as I dont have to work! LOL
