Blake Smith

Seattle U finishes the HBCU Series with a win at T-Mobile Park, defeating Jackson State 6-4. Micah Hagler: W, 7 IP, 3 R (2 ER), 3 K @BlakeSmith3434: SV, 1 IP, 0 R, 3 K @sebastian1opezz: 2-3, 2B, HR, 3 RBI, 2 R @SeattleUBase

The deeper I dig into this pitch from Seattle U pitcher @BlakeSmith3434, the more absurd it gets. He uses a knuckleball grip to get consistent depth without sacrificing much velocity... but it's not quite a knuckleball. Here's what I found on the pitch he calls the "Splurge" 🧵

Last day hitting in the barn that grew me so much as a hitter and a person. It is hard to say goodbyes but I am grateful for the time/sweat/tears etc… spent in there. Coach John is not a coach to me but family! @behrens_john
