San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Tim Lincecum was named the NL CY Young award winner on Tuesday. Lincecum was 18-5 with a 2.62 ERA with a major league-best 265 strikeouts this season. Those numbers are very impressive considering he played for a forth place team. The 24-year-old righty received 24 of a possible 32 first place votes. Others receiving first place votes were Brandon Webb (4), Johan Santana (4), and CC Sabathia (1).
