Tim Lincecum coming home, almost

SAN FRANCISCO -- The best views in baseball are the ones at AT&T Park. On a clear day, you can look beyond the outfield and across San Francisco Bay, with the Oakland Coliseum in your sights.

The San Francisco Giants will extend their hearts across the Bay on Saturday. Tim Lincecum, whose artistry on the mound and happy-go-lucky personality off it helped launch the most treasured era in this city's baseball history, is set to take the mound in Oakland. For the first time in a major league career that started in 2007, Lincecum will not pitch for the Giants.
