Cristin Coleman, wife of SF Giants' Tim Lincecum, dies

Cristin Coleman, the wife of Giants pitcher Tim Lincecum, died earlier this year, the team announced Thursday.

"The Giants were extremely saddened to learn of the passing of Tim Lincecum’s wife, Cristin Coleman," the Giants said in a statement. "Our deepest condolences go out to Tim, Cristin’s family and all those whose lives she touched as a friend and teacher.

"She was beloved by the Giants family and her caring and genuine spirit touched those of us who were fortunate enough to know her during her and Timmy’s years with us."

Coleman's death was reported by the San Mateo Journal last month; she died of cancer on June 27.
