Lincecum Just Bruised

It appears that Lincecum - who left in the fifth yesterday after taking a line drive to the knee - is ok. John Shea sums it up perfectly: "Tim Lincecum is hurt. Four words no Giants fan wanted to read or hear. Or imagine." X-rays showed only bruising, though his next start remains up in the air. Even in his short stint yesterday, Lincecum struck out seven to raise his leading total to 182. Unfortunately, the Giants again couldn't hold the lead he left with, and I'm just going to try and forget that game ever happened.

It has been difficult to be a Giants fan these last several years - losing records, injuries, and bad contracts. We may be critical - but we stand by our team through good times and bad. The Giants remain one of the most storied franchises in the history of baseball and have a crop of new stars ready to add new pages to the Giants history books. Lincecum, Cain, Sanchez, Wilson and Sandoval are giving us reasons to be excited. Times may not always be stellar, but the Giants always give us something to talk about.
