MESA, ARIZ. (AP) - Tim Lincecum gave up a first-pitch homer to Alfonso Soriano and it didn’t get much better after that.
The reigning NL Cy Young Award winner allowed four runs and seven hits in 3 2-3 innings before the San Francisco Giants recovered for an 8-6 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday in front of a HoHoKam Park spring training-record crowd of 13,024.
