Tim Lincecum

By Jason Glaser

Book Overview

"The Freak." This high school nickname has stayed with Tim Lincecum. It describes his pitching style: unusual to watch and incredibly frustrating to any opponent team's batter. This two-time Cy Young Award recipient pitched his San Francisco Giants all the way to the 2010 World Series title. Sports enthusiasts will learn the origin of Tim's unique technique and follow his rise from a skinny high-school hurler to the ruler of the MLB mound.
