Blackburn (0-0) allowed an unearned run on three hits and one walk while striking out four over six innings, but didn't factor into the decision Saturday against the Braves.
Blackburn had an excellent big-league debut, but due to a lack of run support, he didn't have a chance to pick up his first victory. Should he remain in the rotation, he's worth a flier, but his next start has yet to be determined.
