He dedicated his first major league performance to his parents, John and Misu Dunning.
Dunning is the only MLB pitcher to give up two grand slams at Oracle Park (known as AT&T Park at the time), both of them coming during the 2013 season.[6] They were the only two home runs hit against him during his 30-game major league career.[7]
On May 5, 2014, Dunning allowed runners to score on two consecutive wild pitches in a game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, his only appearance of the year. He was designated for assignment by the Giants on June 21, and sent outright to the Triple–A Fresno Grizzlies on June 28.[8]
Dunning spent the 2016 campaign with the Triple–A Sacramento River Cats, recording a 4.85 ERA with 43 strikeouts across 59+1⁄3 innings pitched. He elected free agency following the season on November 7, 2016.[9]

Dunning was released by the White Sox organization on June 28.[11]
Long Island Ducks
[edit | edit source]On July 14, 2017, Dunning signed with the Long Island Ducks of the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball. In 14 appearances (seven starts), he posted a 2-3 record and 3.65 ERA with 43 strikeouts across 49+1⁄3 innings pitched.
