Game Thread.....

Lincecum is cruising along. Sixth inning and the Giants actually gave him a four run lead. This is my idea of baseball. I was sitting here thinking to myself, "who does this kid remind me of?" I hear the analogies to Doc Gooden but I don't see it. Sure his stuff is as nasty but....I don't see it. I can't think of any past or present ball players. Oswalt comes close I suppose. So I started thinking of big screen pitchers. "Nuke" LaLouche? Nope. Rick Vaughn? Mmmmmm, no. The one he reminds me of is, well, Kelly Leak. That kid had some gas too. Remember, the chick was the actual pitcher and Kelly played every other position, but he was toying with them. He was so much better than Lupus, Engleberg, Rudy Stein. Kelly was a man among boy. On the other hand, Lincecum looks like a boy among men but when it comes to playing ball, the kid is alllll man! Yea, I'm off on a tangent. I gotta admit, it's nice to go on a tangent from time to time. Usually I'm rubbing the ol' rosary while watching Fred Lewis rest his maple stick on his shoulder. Ok. Back to the game....
