Tim Lincecum’s legend grows
“Rookie of the Year,” the 1993 comedy about the kid pitcher who develops an otherworldly fastball after recovering from a broken arm, receives 5.3 stars out of 10 on imdb.com. Tim Lincecum would take issue with that. The Giants’ own Henry Rowengartner called the movie one of his favorites of all-time after pitching a gem Tuesday afternoon at Wrigley Field. Lincecum feels a connection to Rowengartner, you see. “What’s even funnier is, in that game at the end, he was playing with the Pirates — that’s my Little League team,” Lincecum said. “You know that one commercial you see with that dumb look on my face [from Little League]? That was the Pirates!” Big League Stew
Yeah, we know that one commercial.
