Matt Gage News: Set to open Sunday

Gage will serve as the Giants' opening pitcher for Sunday's matchup against the Mets, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Gage will begin what's slated to be a bullpen game for the Giants, with righty Carson Seymour likely to handle multiple innings once the left-hander exits the contest. Though Gage will be making his first MLB start, he's unlikely to cover more than an inning or two. Gage has yet to give up a run through nine appearances across stints with the Tigers and Giants this season, and he's posted a 7:3 K:BB over 9.2 frames.
