Carson Whisenhunt Struggles, Allows Three Homers in Giants' Loss

San Francisco Giants rookie pitcher Carson Whisenhunt lasted only four innings in his third career MLB start, allowing three solo home runs and five hits while striking out five and walking three. All three home runs were hit off his sinker in the first three innings, a pitch that had previously been very effective for him. This outing significantly contrasts with his first two starts, where he had only surrendered two home runs combined.
