Cain Can, but the rest can't

Second-youngest player currently in majors (20, vs. M's Felix Hernandez, 19) looks impressive as he hits 96 on the gun, gets bases-loaded double play, retires Helton in 14-pitch AB, and generally looks like something on the mound; SF "offense" lets him down as they manage just 5 runners vs. Kim (3-10, 5.12 pregame); Linden: 2 AB, 2 K; compare Cain (5 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 4 BB, 2 K) to Clemens' debut on May 15 '84 (5.2 IP, 11 H, 4 ER, 3 BB, 4 K).
