Lincecum goes 5 2-3 against Giants minor leaguers

Two-time reigning National League Cy Young Award winner Tim Lincecum was a bit wild early on Sunday in a game against San Francisco Giants minor leaguers, but still managed to throw 5 2-3 shutout innings.

While his Giants teammates were playing against the Arizona Diamondbacks in Tucson, the 25-year-old right-hander walked five hitters, gave up three hits and struck out six while throwing 94 pitches. It was his longest outing of the spring. He was 0-2 with a 9.39 ERA before Sunday.

Lincecum likely will make his next start on Friday in Scottsdale against the Los Angeles Angels.
