HOUSTON, April 5 (UPI) -- Tim Lincecum, two-time winner of the National League Cy Young Award, shut out Houston through seven innings Friday and San Francisco downed the Astros 5-2.
Mark DeRosa hit a home run in the eighth inning to give San Francisco a 5-0 cushion and both Bengie Molina and Juan Uribe had two hits and an RBI during a three-run second.
Lincecum gave up four hits and struck out seven. He did not walk a batter during his second straight opening-day start.
Brian Wilson retired two in the ninth to pick up the save.
Roy Oswalt took the loss, giving up three runs on seven hits in six innings. He opened the season on the mound for the eighth straight year.
Houston had not been shut out on opening day in 18 seasons.
