Tim Lincecum lasted in the series finale against the Los Angeles Dodgers shorter than a Hollywood sitcom.

Lincecum was knocked out after just 1.1 innings, allowing five runs on seven hits and the a Dodgers averted the sweep with a 10-2 victory over the San Francisco Giants at Dodger Stadium.

It was the shortest outing of Lincecum’s career, as he threw 53 pitches in retiring four of the 10 batters he faced.

Justin Turner scored the only run that the Dodgers would need, as he scored on a Lincecum wild pitch with Howie Kendrick at the plate. Turner walked, since then went to third on a Adrian Gonzalez single.

Yasmani Grandal and Jimmy Rollins got to Lincecum in the second, advanced an additional 90 feet on a Brett Anderson sacrifice bunt and then both scored on a Yasiel Puig single into centerfield. Joc Pederson then doubled to score Puig and then Turner hit a single to score Pederson to put an end to Lincecum’s night.

The Giants got on the board in the top of the third, as Angel Pagan singled in Brandon Belt.

After that, things got even worse for the Giants, as Yusmeiro Petit got shelled, as he gave up four home run. Grandal hit two of the four home runs and Gonzalez and Turner each hit one, as the Dodgers averted the three-game sweep.
