Tim Lincecum Warm-Ups II

[Spiegel1989]

I'm built almost exactly like Lincecum--5'10, not quite 170. And that just makes the stuff he throws look all the more insane to me.

[seattlehawkins]

Its so weird to see this guys older brother at stods in bellevue wash. You can only imagine the bitterness, Little brother in the league, you makin' $12 an hour Ouch!

[jhawksmoor]

thanks for the video. its a beautiful thing to watch. so intriguing! sf chronicle has a great article about how his pitching mechanics were invented by his dad, a boeing enginner

[travispastrana4life]

Tim Lincecum the best 25 yr. old pitcher ever

[NAMEismyNAME12345]

im a dodger fan but im the first to admit Tim Lincecum is the greatest pitcher ive ever seen

[Nitrousx]

I seen him at the phillies game and hes the only player that really stood out to me. I dont watch baseball at all, I just happened to go to that game and now every once in a while I watch tim linecum pitch. Hes so good. In person hes amazing

[unconquered1018]

I have this EXACT same video on my phone. I was at the game vs the Houston Astros on the 4th. I was about 8 rows back of you

[zschell510]

@unconquered1018 haha i was there to that game on the fourth bad ass game. the should of kept him in he was killin em. i was up and left field 2 rows back. giants and lincecum rule

[tonyjh34]

what is the name of the song at the beginning?

[mikekaz15]

long train running- the doobie brothers

[tonyjh34]

ahh thanks

[branman57]

Cy Young was a terrific pitcher year round.

[seattlehawkins]

@branman57 In a league full of overweight, not alot of black, racist, shitty bat, bad coached, shadow of the current leauge situation! Get it?

[branman57]

San Francisco is a beautiful place in the summer.

[TheLegoman08]

i like his wind up.i sometimes have the same wind up as him

[a7xslipknotBFMV]

sometimes?

that means u have an inconsistent motion, and thats not a good thing

[mybellyiscute]

it's so sexy when he throws his fastball. :D

[Cheech234566]

how is it sexy when he throws his fastball explain it to us

[mybellyiscute]

haha. who is us?

[jayp28]

:D.. :D

[carlosmenciafunny]

he is the best pitcher in the game right now

[lzcougarz25]

GO CUBSS

[Cheech234566]

the reaction from the people at 1:20, thy're acting like they never seen a curveball before

[Merineanu]

got that ;)

[robert1191]

his is so dirty tho haha

[globalcapitalist]

LOL, Woahh! 12-6?!

[janetcisneros]

hopefully comes to the whitesox no cubs anywhere but the cubs and yankees

[mrallstar2]

do you only go to games when lincecum pitches, haha, 2008 giants, i understand

at least theyre winning this year, i wud go to lincecum, cain, and johnson's games

[PiggyofGuinea]

im kind of dreading the pitch where he has too much lag and he isnt able to recover quickly enough and a line drive pounds back at him. I dont know if that can happen, but still...

[thepittsburghfan1]

this guy is my idol is my favorite i look up 2 him

[BCK7153]

wen his contract is up hes goin to new york met or yankee no doubt

[junmengo]

maybe red sox too

[canttouchthis3223]

under rated sick kid!!!

[Downfall101]

Freak....haha, the kid is sick with it, anyone know when his contract is up?

[ColdHearted]

look at his mechanics... so much torque

[noobssincereal]

tim is my idol when i pitch seriously

he is good

[bmccann55]

Id kill to have mechaincs like that. Im not a pitcher but shit..... that would come in handy at short.

[bael198]

his mechanics are too cool .. can't not love this guy

[lamounek]

i understand

[canttouchthis3223]

he has like a 7 ft 2 in stretch or something like that

[57johansantana57]

Yeah he's pretty good lol.

Johan is still better lol. Actually I would say it's between the two. Go mets!

[blakethesnake12345]

fuk the loser ass mets timmy way better than johan. haha good one bud maybe next year

[a7xslipknotBFMV]

i love the mets (they suck right now)

but between the two, NO DOUBT Tim Lincecum is the better pitcher, as of right now.

[McCarthy617]

im a red sox fan but boy ohh boy i love this guy

[ballin648]

whats the song they where playing at the ballpark

[Stewiebender1818]

long train runnin' - the doobie brothers

[SovietskiiSniper]

At 0:38, look his landing foot ankle. He's passed 6' stride on a warm-up... Some pitchers do that at full power...

[blakeskate33]

dude i have the same mechanics as him and im in little league - hes awsome

[SovietskiiSniper]

Well, if you use an uncoiling action ,a long stride, a good back bend and go over the top much like him, it's a good thing.

But, if oyu try to copy him and it feels unatural and you are chaotic through your delivery, it's not a good thing.

Copy the key parts, not the motion.

[Moony2373]

hes my favorite player and im a yankee fan

[AndyHurleysChicklet7]

he's my favorite player too..and i'm a pirates fan lol he's just so cute XD

[famouslystraped85]

lincecum is a monster!!!! i wish the yanks would sign him hahaha lol

[capetrus26]

i prey for that every night when i go to bed myself., he would be great in the pinstripes.

[texrea21]

i have the same mechanics has him

[klapp08]

anyone could have the same mechanics as him if they wanted to..so who really cares?

[davidbriseno]

Yanks fan here....this guy is a beast!

[aznelf13]

i see why he doesnt need to worry for positioning, he has great balance so when defending, he doesnt need to get in defense position

[websterish]

You know, his motion isn't violent at all, is it? You don't see anything being forced or strained, no pushing the ball with big muscles. It's twirly, that's all. Like a fan. Once the axle is turning, all the blades just follow through. Not that anybody should try this at home.

[ballin648]

i am actually trying to perfect his mechanics

[SovietskiiSniper]

A violent motion... Violent liek powerful, hard, with insane acceleration. He does have a very violent motion.

He's warming up, but in a real game you'd see what I mean.

As he bases his swing on rotation, what is violent is the acceleration gained through his uncoiling when he lands.

Violence here is about rapid acceleration.

[mgkibbles]

I'm a Phillies fan so obviously Hamels is my favorite pitcher but if I could pick anyone else to watch for the day it would be this kid. Absolutely electric stuff.

[famouslystraped85]

yeah cole hamels definate hall of fame recipiant in my book

[wackymac28]

true. cole hamels is a stud

[thndrct218]

Hes such a fuckin beast

[heatrockhurler]

the righthanded koufax

[JUN3N10R]

all day

[sparkymalech3]

I love Timmy!! I was there for his his major league debut and have been to so many of his games since then. I love him to death!!

[yankfan408]

u should bang him

[ThetseySitders520]

i love him waaaaaay more than you

[LexyLovesTimmy]

Wow, I can watch him pitch forever! Tim Lincecum is just amazing!  Thanks for posting this great video!

[SugaRush78]

Watching this guy in action is just beautiful!

[Hightemplarl]

Hey I went to this game! I sat in the view reserved behind homeplate.

[cmacirishball18]

best pitcher ever. nd r staff is gonna b loaded: franchise(lincecum), cain, sanchez, bumgarner, nd i guess zito since hes getting better nd nobody will trade for him. nd way to go tyler walker gave up lincecum's win tonight

[dusterbaniel]

Are you talking about that game against Arizona when Lincecum struck out 13 batters? I was there. I'm a Diamondbacks fan, but that should have been Tim's game. He works so hard for the Giants and time after time his relievers let him down.

[lolap90]

i hate to admit this but he is cute

[crazydeaf9]

what a beautiful day for baseball

and hes throwing 90 for easy warm up throws

[TravisJamielWali]

go SF Giants!!!

[three60sixty]

Go Huskies!

[SwissKids]

now, the giants just need a solid bat other than arron rowand, now ellison and lewis are getting there, but they still need a consistant hardball hitter, and they will be a real force to recon with

[sboyd415]

Bowker, Franny, Lewis, Posey (sooner or later) and in the (very) future guys like Noonan and Villalona. Doesn't look bad but we just need to hang on to them.

[longlarry121212]

Ellison was traded...

[lambofgoddeicide]

yea what about shierholtz of how ever you spell it and we got this other kid lorre tearing up the minors right now his era is non existent

[SwissKids]

lincecum=awesome, i hope he stays on the giants in the long run, but zito is eating up the salary, so i hope he stays

#1-Lincecum

#2-Sanchez

#3-Cain

#4-Zito (hes getting a little better)

#5-Correia

i cant wait til lowry gets back next year, giants will have one of the best pitching line-ups in baseball

[thatgurl6]

hes fineeeeeeeee ! but all connies =[

[Jay21328]

Love the videos of lincecum keep them coming.

Do you have season tickets for the giants?
