Coming off a difficult 2012 season, San Francisco Giants pitcher Tim Lincecum is looking for a fresh start in 2013. And that starts with a fresh look, sporting short hair and black specs he doesn’t need but chooses to complete his new look.
“I wanted something different. Usually I’d take like six months between each haircut just because I was lazy,” Lincecum said. “And now it’s kind of nice to have something to upkeep and take care of yourself.”
The transformed Lincecum drew varied responses.
Manager Bruce Bochy said: “You know, when I first saw him, I didn’t recognize him to be honest with you. He looks good. I think it took a couple years off his age, too. He looks younger, a little more studious, too.”
