Tag: Tim Lincecum
Preview: Giants at Mets May 9, 2010
San Francisco Giants (17-12) at New York Mets (17-13) 1:10 pm
Tim Lincecum (4-0 1.70) vs Oliver Perez (0-2 4.05)
TV: SNY Radio: WFAN
What to watch: After two dramatic wins, the Mets have a chance to sweep the Giants this afternoon. It won’t be easy though. The pitching appears to be a mismatch in the Giant’s favor. Two-time Cy Young Award winner Lincecum is up against Perez. Lincecum is pitching brilliantly again this year. And Perez is… well, he’s Perez. Although he hasn’t pitched terribly, Jerry Manuel has a very quick hook with him.
