Part 9/11:
Post-retirement, Lincecum largely remained out of the public eye. He settled in Seattle, cherishing moments spent with friends and family. However, tragedy struck in 2018 with the passing of his wife, Kristen Coleman, after a prolonged battle with cancer. This profound loss significantly impacted him and likely contributed to his desire for privacy in recent years.
Though Lincecum has distanced himself from professional baseball, he occasionally makes appearances at Giants events, where he is met with an overwhelming outpouring of love and admiration from fans who remember his dazzling skills.
