Tim Lincecum outpitched Houston’s Roy Oswalt to open the 2010 season. San Francisco hopes its ace can do it again. The two-time reigning NL Cy Young Award winner looks to continue both his individual dominance over Houston and that of his team when the Giants and visiting Astros continue their weekend series Saturday. Lincecum allowed four hits and struck out seven in seven scoreless innings of a 5-2 opening-day win at Houston, improving to 3-0 with a 1.37 ERA in six career starts versus the Astros. The right-hander has not given up a run in his last 15 1-3 innings against Houston. Lincecum’s 2.95 ERA and 32 strikeouts over his last three starts are solid, but he has not earned a decision in any of them. He allowed two runs and a season-high seven hits in six innings of a 6-5 win at New York on Sunday. He’ll look to help San Francisco to a second straight victory after it snapped a three-game skid Friday with an 8-2 win over Houston. It improved the Giants to 4-0 against the Astros this season, and was their sixth consecutive victory in the series since last August.

Andres Torres had three hits with two RBIs and Pablo Sandoval added two hits with an RBI as the Giants broke out after being held to four runs while getting swept by NL West-leading San Diego earlier this week. On Saturday, the Giants will again try to get the best of Oswalt, who allowed three runs in six innings of the Astros’ opening day loss. The veteran right-hander is 5-6 with a 3.76 ERA in 14 starts against San Francisco. Oswalt takes the mound one day after saying he would waive the full no-trade clause in his contract if Houston wants to try to shop him this season. Coming off a three-game sweep at NL Central-leading St. Louis, the Astros had their four-game winning streak snapped Friday. Hunter Pence homered and had three of the seven hits for Houston, which was otherwise stymied by San Francisco starter Todd Wellemeyer, who allowed two runs in 7 1-3 innings.
