The Heritage High alum shared details of his full All-Star Game experience.
Paul Blackburn’s pinpoint strike at the top right corner of the zone whizzed right past Joc Pederson’s blurred bat, ending a scoreless frame for the Oakland Athletic pitcher. It was an ordinary result in extraordinary circumstances. This wasn’t a middling Giants team the 28 year-old had held down on Tuesday night: it was the National League All-Stars.
“The beauty of calling a game with a guy like Paul is that there’s no wrong pitch at any time,” catcher Stephen Vogt said. “He can execute them all.” Only a fraction paid attention to Blackburn’s stellar showing for the American League. In the bottom of the fourth, Blackburn got hometown favorite Trea Turner to pop up, Pederson to strike out swinging and future Hall of Famer Albert Pujols to fly out to left field.
“The guy has done so much for this game, and it was cool to share that experience with him,” Blackburn said.
