Lincecum Out of All Star Game

Looks like Tim has finally met his match: the flu. Baggarly reports that Lincecum began feeling sick last night and he definitely will not pitch tonight. Terrible, as he was one of my few reasons to watch the All Star Game.

Get well, Timmy!

Update: Lincecum was hit with what was probably a respiratory illness that was going around the Giants' clubhouse during the road trip. He went to the hospital to get IV fluids and is reportedly feeling better, although he still won't pitch in the All Star Game. Brian Wilson, though, will pitch in the 8th inning to set up Brad Lidge.

It'll be fun watching the AL batters rear back from a 102-mph heater up and in. Not so much fun when Wilson gives up 2 hits (it is a non-save situation, after all).

Update: Mays and McCovey sighting!
