MLB Note - Atlanta Braves Newcomb, Sean

Aug 16, 2017 - 11:09 AM LHP Sean Newcomb allowed five hits, including three solo homers, and three runs in six innings with four walks and eight strikeouts Tuesday. The three home runs were a career high, albeit not totally surprising in his Coors Field debut. "You sort of expect it coming here," Newcomb said of the home runs. "You know deep fly balls kind of turn into home runs. But I just put those behind me and kept attacking." Newcomb has received three or fewer runs of support while on the mound in each of his first 12 major league starts.
