After learning that shortstop Mark DeRosa will be lost for the remainder of the season due to surgery on his left wrist, Tim Lincecum and the San Francisco Giants took the field looking for their second straight win. Lincecum went eight innings, giving up just one run (unearned), walking just two and striking out seven, as the Giants defeated the Houston Astros 3-1 at Minute Maid Field. In career eight outings versus the Astros, Lincecum raises his record to 5-0 and the Giants are now 7-0 versus the Astros this season. Pablo Sandoval drove in the eventual game-winning run on a force play that scored Juan Uribe to give the Giants a 2-1 lead in the top of the seventh inning. The Giants scored the tying run on a Pat Burrell single that scored Aubrey Huff, who singled to start the rally. Michael Bourn got the Astros on the board in the bottom of the third inning, as he doubled in Jason Castro, who was making his major league debut. Castro, the 10th pick of the 2008 amateur draft singled in his first at-bat, and then scored on the Bourn double. Roy Oswalt gave up six hits on two runs, striking out five in seven innings of work and lost to the Giants for the third time this season. |
