LINCECUM ENJOYING GRASS-ROOTS SUPPORT
When San Francisco Giants ace Tim Lincecum takes the mound in his
playoff debut on Thursday, many fans will be celebrating...his 2009
citation for marijuana possession. Since then, T-shirts emblazoned
with some variation of "Let Tim Smoke" are big sellers online and
outside AT&T Park. Street vendor Jerry Lami says the shirts are only
popular when Tim is winning. "When he was 0-5 in August, people said
he better stick to playing baseball," he says.
