Biographical Information

Travis Seabrooke has pitched in the minors and for Team Canada.

Seabrooke had a save and a 3.18 ERA in four outings for Canada in the 2012 World Junior Championship, saving Cal Quantrill's win over Colombia. Canada won Silver. He was picked by the Baltimore Orioles in the fifth round of the 2013 amateur draft, one pick after Johnny Field. The signing scout was Tyler Moe. He allowed two runs (one earned) in eight innings for the GCL Orioles that summer. In the 2013 World Junior Championship, he allowed three runs (two earned) against Taiwan but was outdueled by Cheng-Hsien Lin.

Knee surgery sidelined him for all of 2014. He was 3-7 with a 4.95 ERA for the 2015 Aberdeen Ironbirds, tying for second in the New York-Penn League in losses, one behind Kieran Lovegrove. He had a 3.53 ERA with the same team in 2016 but was 2-7. He again tied for second in the NYPL in defeats, one shy of Gabriel Llanes.

Moving up to the Delmarva Shorebirds in 2017, the tall southpaw had a 3-9, 5.01 record. He tied for 7th in the O's farm system in losses. He split 2018 between Delmarva (1-1, 3 Sv, 3.29 in 11 G) and the Frederick Keys (Sv, 7.09 in 19 G), converting to relief. He was 2-2 with two saves and a 7.50 ERA in 2019 for the Keys. The 2020 minor league season was wiped out by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Pitching for Canada in the Americas Olympic Qualifier, he got the start against Venezuela. He had a 1-2-3 first against Hernán Pérez, Alí Castillo and Juniel Querecuto. In the second, though, he walked Robinson Chirinos and Carlos Pérez singled. He retired Diego Rincones and Alexander Palma then Ramón Flores singled in one run and Yonny Hernández singled in another, but Flores was thrown out on that play. Trevor Brigden took over and Seabrooke took the loss in a 5-0 defeat. He also pitched against tourney champion Team USA. Relieving Chris Leroux in the bottom of the 8th with a 4-1 deficit, one on and one out. He started by hitting Mark Kolozsvary but fanned Eddy Alvarez. Things then turned south when Nick Allen hit into a run-scoring error. Luke Williams doubled in two, Jarren Duran tripled in another and then Todd Frazier hit a two-run homer to put it well out of reach at 10-1 before Seabrooke got Eric Filia looking at strike 3. His seven runs allowed led the tournament (though only two were earned), one ahead of Raúl Valdés, Anibal Sánchez and Erling Moreno.

That summer, he pitched for the independent Winnipeg Goldeyes and was 6-0 with a 4.14 ERA and 54 K in 45 2/3 IP. He tied Max Kuhns for the most games pitched (44) in that year's American Association.
