Carson Seymour News: Struggles through short outing

Seymour (0-2) took the loss against Baltimore on Saturday, allowing four runs on five hits and two walks while striking out two batters over three innings.

Seymour's first MLB start didn't go according to plan, though he was able to begin the game with two scoreless innings before serving up a pair of two-run homers in the third. It's unclear if he'll get another turn in the rotation after making his first 10 appearances out of the bullpen, but the Giants have a need for a fifth starter with Landen Roupp (knee) likely to be sidelined until at least late September. Over 24.2 big-league innings this season, Seymour has a 4.74 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 18:11 K:BB.
