Lynn (0-1) allowed eight earned runs on nine hits and three walks while striking out five across 4.1 innings to take the loss Thursday against the Giants.
Lynn allowed multiple runs in three of the five innings he pitched, and he served up three homers in the disastrous outing. The only positive to be taken from the start is that he was throwing around his typical velocity, so it doesn't appear that he's dealing with any type of injury. Even though his first outing of the season saw him give up just two runs over 5.2 innings, Lynn has now walked seven batters across his first 10 frames, which is a stark contrast to last year's performance since he issued just 19 walks in 21 starts.
