After recording his first career strikeout Tuesday, Seymour is headed back down to the minors. The 26-year-old righty was roughed up in his first two outings, giving up four hits in seven innings pitched.
The Kansas State alum made his major league debut Sunday, holding the White Sox scoreless in one inning, allowing two hits.
Black’s call-up will be his first stint of the season with the big league club. Last year with the Giants, the former No. 85 overall pick posted a 6.44 ERA in 8 starts. The 25-year-old righty will be used out of the bullpen, for now.
Carson Seymour was optioned. Mason Black is back. Some depth for the bullpen in middle of a long trip.

San Francisco’s skid has been hard to watch, as they have dropped seven of their last eight games, and the Giants are hopeful that Black can be the spark they need to get back on track.
