Correia pitches gem, Lewis doubles and triples in Giants' 5-1 win over Cards
Kevin Correia's latest start became all the more impressive considering his current state of health.
Down 12 pounds to 188 because of a stomach bug last week, Correia didn't let it show that he's still a little weak and trying to regain his strength.
He carried a shutout into the eighth inning in one of his best starts yet, leading the San Francisco Giants past the St. Louis Cardinals 5-1 on Thursday night for their third straight victory.
"My body is still taxed," Correia said. "My velocity was a little down. But I got a lot of quick outs. ... I got behind some guys but I made some good pitches and made the right pitches at the right times to make it a pretty good outing."
Correia (1-1) allowed five hits in 7 2-3 innings, struck out four, walked two and also singled for the Giants, who are on a little roll after losing six of their first seven games.
Correia allowed only four baserunners past first, including on Izturis' third-inning double that he tried to stretch into a triple only to be thrown out. The pitcher's seventh-inning single was his first hit since April 30, 2007, and the seventh of his career.

Giants一週要聞(ESPN)
4/1 Torre wins Dodgers debut as L.A. roughs up Zito
Zito allowed four runs and eight hits in five innings.
Zito:"The first inning was obviously not what we wanted," he said. "Furcal's a free-swinger and he hit a pitch that was at his shoulder, basically, and the ball stayed fair somehow. The pitch to Kent was a fastball away that just came over the middle, and I think that was the difference right there. I wanted to come out here and start off the season on a good note, but that first inning got out of hand. If I could take a couple of pitches back, it's a one-run game."(5-0 L)
Notes: SP Zito 5.0IP 8H 4ER 7.20ERA ,H Rowand 2-3 .667
4/2 Young's infield hit with two outs in ninth scores Furcal, lifts Dodgers
Mariano Duncan, coaching third because Larry Bowa had been ejected earlier in the game, waved Furcal around as San Francisco second baseman Ray Durham made a sliding stop of Young's sharp grounder between first and second before throwing late to first base. Furcal never stopped, sliding around the tag of catcher Bengie Molina to beat first baseman Rich Aurilia's throw home.
"I knew [Furcal] was going to go," Aurilia said. "As soon as I saw Ray bobble the ball, I said, 'I have to get off the bag and get to the ball.' Ray made a great stop, just not good enough right now."(3-2 L)
Notes: SP Cain 5.2IP 3H 4BB 5K 0.00ERA ,H Rowand 2-4 1R
4/3 Lincecum debuts, scores go-ahead run in Giants' win
Lincecum (1-0) threw 84 pitches over four innings, allowing a run and four hits with four walks and four strikeouts. The right-hander got his biggest out when Russell Martin took a called third strike with the bases loaded to end the seventh.
"I was just throwing a slider right there on 2-2. I really wasn't trying to spot anything up. I was hoping to get him to chase. But it worked out for the better."
The relief outing was the first in the majors for Lincecum, who made 24 starts last season as a rookie.
"It was a little different, of course, but at the same time I've got to listen to what they say," Lincecum said. "Whether it's out of the bullpen or starting, I've got to approach it the same way."(2-1 W)

Lincecum strikes out 9 in 5 no-hit innings and San Francisco Giants beat Oakland A's 3-0
Friday, March 28, 2008
Tim Lincecum provided a bright spot in a rather dismal spring for the San Francisco Giants on Friday night.
Lincecum struck out nine in five no-hit innings and the Giants beat the cross-bay Oakland Athletics 3-0.
"The first inning I was big," Lincecum said. "My first inning was like seven or eight pitches and I got on a roll. And then I found my rhythm from there."
Lincecum, scheduled to pitch the Giants' third game of the season against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday, was masterful in a steady drizzle, keeping Oakland off balance.
"The kid threw well," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "It was a nice tune up for him. It was a big win for us. The way we played tonight was what we were looking for.
"We pitched well. We executed and we played crisp baseball. That's what it's going to take for us to win games."
Lincecum's performance was a needed lift for the Giants, who snapped a five-game losing streak that included a loss to Fresno, their Triple-A affiliate on Wednesday.
In his last three outings, Lincecum has struck out 20 batters.
And Lincecum had no hard feelings about being removed from a no-hitter.
"I wasn't really thinking about that," said Lincecum. "I got done what I wanted."
The game was the first for the A's since they returned from Japan, where they split their first two regular season games against the Red Sox.
"Lincecum threw the ball real well," A's manager Bob Geren said. "He had a very, very good fastball. Also, it wasn't very good conditions to hit, but still, he threw very well."
During the early innings of the game, a steady drizzle fell drenching the players and field.
"It was cool, it was damp. There's a guy out there throwing 96, touching 98, that could as easily have happened in July," Geren said.

Zito determined to build on strong finish
Ace's last nine starts in rough 2007 give Giants hope in '08
For much of the spring, Zito looked like a dubious choice as the Giants' No. 1 starter. He allowed seven runs or more in three of his first four Cactus League assignments, recording a 14.92 ERA. But his 5 2/3 shutout innings on March 21 against the White Sox muted the skeptics.
Zito has endured plenty of cynicism since becoming a Giant. The seven-year, $126 million contract he received before the 2007 season, which at the time made him the highest-paid pitcher in baseball history, immediately prompted observers to declare that he wasn't worth it. The 8-11 record and 5.13 ERA he built in his first 25 games didn't help.
But Zito recovered in his final nine starts, posting a 3-2 mark with a 3.10 ERA and a .200 opponents' batting average. Although Zito's 11-13 record and 4.53 ERA overall were career worsts, his strong finish generated plenty of hope among the Giants for this year.
"Last year, during the course of the season, he was a different pitcher," manager Bruce Bochy said. "What he should feel good about was how he finished the season. That's what he needs to build on to carry into this season. I don't look at the middle of the season when he had some rough starts, and he shouldn't either. That's behind him."
----
Zito gave the doubters fresh material this spring when he altered his pitching motion for the second year in a row. Last year, he tinkered with his stride in February before returning to the delivery that helped him amass a 102-63 record with Oakland from 2000-06. This time, Zito waited until his third Cactus League start before pulling his surprise. He no longer brought his hands over his head from the windup, explaining that this change synchronized his hands with his kicking leg more properly.
"I think my stuff has later movement," Zito said. "You always want your stuff to move as late as possible so the hitter can't gauge it and basically determine where the ball's going to be when he swings at it."
Zito has struggled in his previous Opening Day starts, losing all three of them while compiling a 9.49 ERA. This includes last year's opener against the Padres, who defeated the Giants, 7-0, as Zito surrendered three runs (two earned) on four hits in five innings.
This kind of history never entered Bochy's mind as he named Zito to pitch Game 1 after the first workout for pitchers and catchers.
"When Barry hits the mound, we expect to win and we expect him to give us a chance to win," Bochy said. "That's not ever going to change for us."

Giants' lackluster spring sparking trade rumors
Increasingly displeased by their product on the field, Giants officials have become more aggressive on the trade front and recently asked the Los Angeles Angels about first baseman Casey Kotchman and catcher Jeff Mathis, according to sources.
It's possible that the two clubs discussed sending Bengie Molina back to Anaheim; Angels officials are said to miss the former Gold Glove catcher's leadership and game-calling skills.
But the two sides were not close to a deal, since the Angels need to boost their injured rotation. The Giants are not in a position to trade pitching because of their own injury woes.
"No match," Angels general manager Tony Reagins said. "Not now."
The Giants are looking for ways to improve a roster that has failed to meet limited expectations while slogging through the Cactus League schedule. They managed four hits -- all singles -- in an 8-1 loss to the Angels at Tempe on Thursday. At 6-17-2, they have the worst exhibition record in the major leagues.
Their .253 batting average is the lowest in the Cactus League and their 7.11 ERA is the worst in the majors. They haven't been so hot catching the ball, either. Lacking Omar Vizquel's stabilizing play at shortstop, their infield continues to look a fright. Third baseman Eugenio Velez committed an error on a routine grounder hit right to him when he inexplicably sidestepped it and tried to field on a backhand.
"We need to turn it up here," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "We're not even playing decent ball. We've talked about it. We've addressed it numerous times. ... You see it. The guys are taking a ton of ground balls every day.
"We've got to keep working here. Believe me, we're aware we're not winning games. We'd like to win some in the next week here. But the last thing we need to do is start hanging heads."
Catcher needed?
The Giants are looking for catching help because their two candidates, Eliezer Alfonzo and Guillermo Rodriguez, have played their way off the roster.
Alfonzo, who was the most valuable player of the prestigious Venezuelan Winter League, is having the roughest spring of all. He is 3-for-40 (.075) with no walks and seven strikeouts.
Just as significantly, neither catcher has excelled behind the plate. Each allowed a passed ball Thursday.
It's another reason the Giants could decide to acquire Brandon Inge, since the Tigers' third baseman has experience at catcher.
"To be honest, yeah, we need somebody to step up and take that job," said Bochy, who challenged each catcher in one-on-one meetings. "I don't see anybody doing it."
Lowry taking it slow
Left-hander Noah Lowry is throwing a baseball again. Two weeks after surgery to correct a condition in his forearm, Lowry played catch from 50 feet for about five minutes. The session appeared to go as planned.
Because no standard rehab schedule exists for a pitcher rehabbing from Lowry's procedure, the Giants plan to reevaluate him each day before moving to the next step. Lowry could return as soon as late April.
Durham, Aurilia dinged
Second baseman Ray Durham was a late scratch with a sore hamstring and is day-to-day. Infielder Rich Aurilia started at designated hitter and hasn't thrown in a few days because of elbow tendinitis. Bochy said Aurilia might play the field today.

Lindy's 2008 Giants Preview
For 15 years, the face of the San Francisco Giants franchise wore a bored expression and a dismissive sneer from beneath a size 8 baseball cap. Now the team's marquee position player wears a look of perpetual intensity and a gash across his nose.
Barry Bonds is finally gone and he'll spend 2008 making court appearances and defending his legacy rather than patrolling left field at AT&T Park and tormenting National League pitchers.
After flailing around in search of a post-Bonds alternative, the Giants spent $60 million on former Phillies centerfielder Aaron Rowand, whose signature moment remains that encounter with the Citizens Bank Park wall two years ago. The Giants gave him a five-year deal and a mandate to set the same competitive tone in the San Francisco clubhouse that he brought to Philadelphia.
If only the surrounding talent were as good. In the National League West, the Diamondbacks and Rockies are loaded; the Dodgers derive encouragement from Joe Torre's arrival; and San Diego usually finds a way to get it done. The Giants, meanwhile, are badly in need of a road map.
The San Francisco organization hasn't produced an everyday position player through the draft since third baseman Bill Mueller arrived in the big leagues in 1996. Now management is hoping that someone from the group of Dan Ortmeier, Nate Schierholtz, Kevin Frandsen, Fred Lewis & Co. can emerge and break the spell.
But in true Giants form, this team isn't ready to commit to a youth movement. The Giants' first two offseason moves were re-signing shortstop Omar Vizquel, 40, and making a big bet on Rowand, a career .286 hitter known as much for his intangibles as his production.
Bonds spent 15 years in San Francisco alienating teammates and the media while setting records and winning MVP awards, but he always made life interesting. The Giants might miss him more than they realized.

最近Giants的消息
Inge to Giants?: The Giants are interested in trading for Brandon Inge, a sign that Joe Crede is not looking so good. He has a big contract, but the Giants need some help.--Foxsports
The difference in opinion over the value of Joe Crede is about as wide as the gap between the White Sox third baseman's 2006 Silver Slugger Award season and his .080 spring average. San Francisco, the most likely suitor for Crede, and the Sox have disparate evaluations that carry ramifications for both sides. A talent evaluator familiar with both teams said the Sox were miffed the Giants' offers for Crede included since-released pitcher Scott Williamson; pitcher Randy Messenger, who was optioned to Triple-A Fresno last week; and veteran outfielder Dave Roberts. The source said the Giants believe Sox general manager Ken Williams' asking price ? one of the Giants' top prospects and a serviceable young reliever ? was too steep for a 29-year-old infielder coming off season-ending back surgery. -- Chicago Tribune

San Francisco Giants 2008
A messed up 2007 which was surrounded by the media because of several reasons have calmed down. Not that Barry Bonds' historical home run record could be easily forgotten, but in most part, 2007 was a year worth leaving behind. Problems such as Zito's huge and unprofitable signing, Bonds' legal allegations and the team finishing dead last in the division don't seem like memorable incidents. So this year, after finally letting Barry move(as much as I adore him) , protecting the young pitching staff and bringing in a new face(Rowand), the Giants look like their on the brink of rebuilding the whole organization. Although putting in young players could lead to growing pains, and leftovers such as Aurillia, Roberts, Vizquel, Molina and Winn still make the Giants an old team. At least they showed that they're willing to end the era of Bonds. And that's the determination which the new team should embrace.
San Francisco Giants Projected Lineup
SP Starting Five:
1. Barry Zito: A more relaxed year could pay dividends
2. Matt Cain: One more step before becoming the staff ace
3. Tim Lincecum: The young flame-thrower must avoid injuries
4. Noah Lowry: Surgery always sounds bad
5. Kevin Correia: Hope he can repeat last years' efferts
RP Long Relief, Setup, Closer:
1. Johnathan Sanchez: The odd man out of the rotation, right back in when someone gets hurt
2. Brad Hennessey: Last year seemed steady but not overpowering
3. Brian Wilson: The Closer of the future gets his turn
IF
1B Dan Ortmeier: First extended role would show what he's made of
2B Ray Durham: A rebound seems desperate
3B Kevin Frandson: New role, at least it's extended
C Bengie Molina: Hope for a repeat of last year's glamorous offense
SS Omar Vizquel: Defensive wizard worthy of the Hall
OF
LF Randy Winn: Steady, but can he keep it that way?
CF Aaron Rowand: All out play shoes energy, but power may fall
RF Nate Sheirholtz: Rookies' first shot at a regular spot
Bench OF Dave Roberts, Fred Lewis, Rajai Davis IF Rich Aurillia, Eugenio Velez C Eliezer Alfonzo
