The San Francisco Giants have had a less than stellar year this year, that’s for sure. But when the one bright spot on the season, rookie starter Tim Lincecum, gets hammered, you’ve gotta hurt as a Giants fan.
Lincecum got off to a great start on the game striking out the first three batters he faced on just ten pitches. He then retired the next 9 of 10 batters he faced before the fourth inning which lead to his downfall. He gave up back to back HR’s and a triple as the Bucs scored 5 runs on their way to another Giants loss.
How many games will we lose this season? It seems it’s been really difficult this year for us to get any traction. We can’t seem to do anything right this year.
Don’t worry Giants fans…Lincecum will probably have mantle full of CY Young awards when he’s all said and done.
