Tim Lincecum is a Beatles Fan

In case you didn't know - we are about as obsessed with music as we are with the Giants. We are always curious what sounds our favorite Giants are digging. As the San Francisco Chronicle reported back in March, Tim Lincecum has a taste for older sounds, especially the Beatles. His favorite Beatles songs are "Revolution," "Strawberry Fields Forever," and "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds." Like his pitching motion, Lincecum was introduced to the Beatles through his father. Tim's father Chris also adds, "I always pushed for Timmy and his older brother Sean to sing."

Another interesting Tim Lincecum musical connection - earlier this year, we reported on the striking resemblence between Lincecum and Arctic Monkey/Last Shadow Puppet Alex Turner.

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.
