The San Francisco Giants and Miami Marlins each send their respective ace to the mound Friday night, though neither have been incredibly ace-like to start their 2012 campaign. Both will tough it out at Marlins Park as the Giants look to the Miami in check.
Aside from Lincecum taking the bump for the Black and Orange, only two changes were made to Friday’s lineup as Aubrey Huff will get the start at first base, while Ryan Theriot makes his first start since returning from the DL, playing second and batting eighth.
