Tim Lincecum 14K in a 1-0 Win against the Braves

[Charzr]

How impressive was that guys?
9 IP, 2 Hits, 1 BB 14K in a 1-0 game.
This one and Halladay's masterpiece keep putting in perspective that this the Year of the Pitching, I know that the Giants fan were hoping for a good start out of Lincecum, but come one...he gave them that and a little more.

Of the 75 strikes Lincecum threw, 33 were swinging, he reached full counts on four different hitters and fanned each one. Except for Omar Infante, Lincecum struck out every Braves hitter at least once and notched at least one strikeout in each inning but the fourth, when he issued his lone walk.

If not for a bad call, this game is still tied.

I'm renewing my man crush on Lincecum. He had me worried this year, but he's revving it up again.
