Tim Lincecum Has the Nerve to Allow One Run, Giants Lose 1-0

ATLANTA, GA - AUGUST 18:  Tim Lincecum #55 of the San Francisco Giants sits in the dugout between innings against the Atlanta Braves at Turner Field on August 18, 2011 in Atlanta, Georgia.
YOU SICKEN ME.

You would think I wouldn't have to keep writing permutations of that headline, but here we are. Not a lot to say about this one, but that's what happens when
1) You're facing a LHP that lefties are hitting over .400 against so you put every available right-hander in your lineup.
2) The Number 2 and Number 6 spots in your lineup are filled by Orlando Cabrera and Miguel Tejada.
3) The rest of your lineup has Aaron Rowand, Aubrey Huff, and Chris Stewart.
4) You pinch-hit Mark De Rosa over Brandon "I Killed Bruce Bochy's Dog While I Was Nailing His Daughter and Looking at Called Strike Three" Belt.

The Diamondbacks were losing, but now they're in a rain delay. Will the game get called? Will the Diamondbacks pull off another come-from-behind win? Who gives a crap, the Giants have a series in Houston to lose.
