Is certainly living up to hype in his first game of the season
Through 5 innings, he would be perfect except for a fielding error with 11 strikeouts.

Check out this excellent scouting report on Mason Black for the upcoming MLB draft
https://www.lookoutlanding.com/2020/10/ ... ason-black
Keep in mind that Black still has another year of eligibility at Lehigh but I don't see him being here for that.
This scout (Seattle Mariners) projects him as the 4th college pitcher to be taken.
Side note:
If/when Black decides to take his act to the professional level, he will be the 4th Lehigh pitcher playing in the minor leagues at various levels. The other 3 (Washington, Stout and Reynolds) are currently 7-1 with a combined 2.45 ERA and avg > a strikeout an inning.
A school can develop a reputation this way.

Mason Black was chosen in the 3rd round today by the San Francisco Giants. This is Lehigh's 2nd highest draft choice ever.
Congratulations Mason!!

Mason has made his long awaited debut and it was worth it.
He is playing for the Single A San Jose Giants. In his 1st game, he pitched 4 innings of 1 hit ball, giving up no runs and striking out 7.
For those who like to follow Lehigh players in the pros, I will later provide links to all 5 pitchers we now have in minor league baseball.
