Jimemez outduels Lincecum to earn 10th win, Rockies down Giants

Baseball Betting Lines

05/31/2010 - San Francisco, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ubaldo Jimenez showed why he is the best pitcher in the majors, fanning nine batters on his way to his second complete- game shutout of the season, as the Colorado Rockies handled the San Francisco Giants, 4-0, in the opener of a three-game series at AT&T Park.

Jimenez (10-1) gave up just four hits and walked two batters to record his first full-game shutout since tossing a no-hitter against the Braves on April 17. The young righty picked up his league-best 10th win of the year and lowered his MLB-best ERA to 0.78. He has not allowed a run in a career-best 26 innings and is riding a personal four-start winning streak.

Clint Barmes drove in two runs for the Rockies, who started a six-game road trip on Monday. Todd Helton had an RBI for the victors.

Tim Lincecum (5-2) was supposed to give Jimenez a good battle on the hill, but the two-time defending NL Cy Young Award winner lasted just 5 2/3 frames. He allowed four runs -- three earned -- on six hits to suffer his second straight loss. In fact, Lincecum has allowed 14 earned runs over his last three starts.
