Last night I set down in front of my TV to watch the Giants-Mets. was it to watch barry Bonds in pursuit of hank aaron's record, no it was to watch 22 year old pitching phenom Tim Lincecum. Living in Ohio and being a Reds fan i don't often get to see good youn pitchers. true, the Giants do get national exposure because of bonds but Lincecum only pitches once every 5 games and so it is hard to get the chance to see him. i had read glowing reports of him on the internet and last night I wanted to see if they hype was true.
As the game played out a few things caught my eye. Lincecum looks like the real deal, Jose Reyes is super fast, and Erin Andrews is extremely pretty. Lincecum got a no decision. He pitched 7 strong innings giving up 3 runs. take out the hoerun by Delgado and he pitched wonderfully. While I am not ready to send himto Cooperstown just yet, I can see that he looks like the real deal. as Bonds closes in on Aaron's record i look forward to getting more chances to watch him pitch.
the second most impressive thing in the game was watching Jse Reyes score from first on a double. he can fly. Did I mention Erin Andrews is extremely pretty.
