50 awesome things about Tim Lincecum's no-hitter

I guess this is a tradition. A glorious, amazing tradition. After Jonathan Sanchez threw a no-hitter, there were 50 awesome things about that no-hitter. When Matt Cain threw a perfect game, the same thing happened.  Tim Lincecum, you magnificent bastard.  Here are 50 awesome things about you and your no-hitter.

1. It was Lincecum.  Tim Lincecum. The guy who lost his talent in a poker game before the 2012, then came back to be a relief hero in the playoffs. The guy who was alternating good starts with bad. The guy who dragged the franchise out of the post-Bonds doldrums and won a couple of Cy Youngs and championships.

There’s so much weight behind something like this. Metaphorical weight. Lincecum still weighs a buck-fifty.

…

8. This happened when Lincecum was struggling Look, a no-hitter when Lincecum was winning Cy Youngs would have been dandy. It would have been the cherry on a dominance sundae. But there’s a little added poignance with the struggles of the previous years. It’s not like he’s going to emerge from the depths of the ocean reborn, a new pitcher, a new man, everything is fixed. But, screw it, Lincecum was awesome for a night.

…

14. There was a pitch-count concern, but it didn’t really matter. Pretty cool, everybody.

15. /tugs at collar Yeesh. Whatever. No-hitter!

…

17. Twenty-nine swings and misses was a career high  Except for the 2010 NLDS (31), which is still probably still the best game ever pitched in San Francisco Giants history

18. Lincecum didn’t have some sort of 94 m.p.h outlier of a game.  This was pretty much the Lincecum that we’re used to now. And it was still quite good enough.

…

20. That we get to punch the next trade rumor about Tim Lincecum right in the crotch One free shot. We all get one.

…

25. There were hella strikeouts  There’s something pure about a no-hitter with all sorts of swings and misses. Lincecum struck out 13 on Friday night, the most since April 6, 2011

…

28. Tim Lincecum scored a run That’s one more than the Padres scored. Because they were shut out. Also, no-hit.

29. The curveball Dat curve. It was a non-entity for the last few years. But it’s back, and Posey’s calling for it.

30. This came in the middle of a bad season  Look, it would be better if it came in another championship season. But as an oasis in a desert of losing? This will do fine, just fine.

…

33. This is the face that Tim Lincecum made when a pitch hit the umpire in the beans

…

36. That it wasn’t Chad Gaudin. Or Eric Hacker. Or Yusmeiro Petit Nothing against those guys, but this no-hitter was thrown by Tim Lincecum. There will be Tim Lincecum giveaways at AT&T in 2045. Don’t take that for granted. He’s kind of a big deal..

…

38. The All-Star break will give Lincecum a big-ass rest Easy there, big fella.

39. BABIP Lincecum’s batting average on balls in play has been a big deal over the last two years. He threw an 89-m.p.h. fastball in BABIP’s earhole in this game. It kind of hurt.

…

41. This is a Tim Lincecum quote:

I felt fine out there from the first pitch. Maybe just a little sweaty.

…

50. Tim Lincecum Fine work, Tim Lincecum. Fine work. You done pitched a no-hitter. Fine work.

It had to be Tim Lincecum.

"Kristoff talks for Sven, so it’s slightly psychotic and hopefully humorous. You see Kristoff voicing the inner thoughts of his reindeer, which sometimes they are, we think, the actual inner thoughts of what the reindeer’s thinking. And other times, at the end of the movie, Sven is trying to communicate with Kristoff, and obviously he can’t speak. And Kristoff won’t speak his thoughts, because Kristoff doesn’t want to deal with what Sven is trying to say to him.” —Jonathan Groff

On the top of my head, I can count 3 separate times Tony Stark sacrificed himself in order for the Avengers to win.

When he flew a nuke into a wormhole in The Avengers 2012, not even sure if he himself would survive but ensuring the survival of everyone on Earth.

When he got stabbed in the stomach in IW by Thanos (after fighting the Titan single handily for a whole minute with only the armor he created) and Strange saracrifed the soul stone for him (saying that “there was no other way”).

In Endgame, when he wielded the Guantlet (that he created in his lab in one night btw) and snapped Thanos from existence, LITERALLY SAVING THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE.

And this is all just what I can think of while I’m eating my cereal guys.

My point is: Anthony Edward Stark has walked the wire more times than Steve Rogers has ever had. His death in Endgame (which does make him the biggest hero of the MCU ((besides Nat who is tied)) and leaves him a lasting legacy as the literal heart of the MCU) is unfair to me because he has sacrificed so much for his world and the fact that he was only allowed 5 years of peace (if you could even call it that— Peter’s death weighed heavily on him) with his daughter and wife breaks my heart.

All in all: Tony Stark is the strongest Avenger.
