Lincecum could make Angels debut in Oakland
Angels manager Mike Scioscia is pleased with Tim Lincecum’s first two minor-league starts, and the former Giants ace could be making his Angels debut as early as June 17 or 18 against the Athletics in Oakland.
Lincecum gave up four runs in the first inning in Reno on Tuesday, but then retired 14 of the next 16 batters he faced.
“If he can maintain what he showed after he found it, after the first inning, we’re going to be very excited,” Scioscia told reporters Wednesday.
