Rookie Eric Surkamp will start the Giants' final regular season game Wednesday against the Rockies, manager Bruce Bochy announced in his postgame press conference.
Bochy said that there is nothing wrong with Cain, but wants to get another look at his rookie left-handed starter before the season ends.
In five starts, Surkamp is 2-1 with a 5.32 ERA, while Cain, in 33 starts this season, is 12-11 with a 2.88 ERA.
