Cain certainly deserved a win for this performance, but his teammates couldnt scratch a run until the tenth inning. The right-hander has been excellent all season, but may be in the midst of his best stretch yet with a 0.94 ERA and 1.02 WHIP in over his last six turns. Owners in all formats should use him with confidence next time out, August 3 at Houston.

The Giants anticipated days ago that Cain, who took a direct hit last Saturday from a line drive off the bat of San Diego's Tim Stauffer, would be able to face Pittsburgh, though he was forbidden from performing in Tuesday's All-Star Game. Despite the widespread confidence, prompted when X-rays taken of Cain's arm were negative, Giants manager Bruce Bochy acknowledged that the 25-year-old's condition was a "slight concern." Cain admitted that he "kind of wondered what it would be like going full speed." Overall, though, he sensed no hidden trouble. "I wasn't really that worried about it," he said. "My range of motion was fine." The announcement comes one day after Cain threw off the mound without feeling any pain.

Cain was hit below the elbow by a line drive in his start Saturday. X-rays ruled out a fracture, and Cain told reporters Sunday he was still sore but understood the decision of manager Bruce Bochy and the Giants training staff. Bochy added that if Cain attempted to throw an inning Tuesday while not 100 percent, the pitcher might be tempted to alter his delivery in order to perform on the grand stage. The fact that the Giants are already down one starter -- Randy Johnson was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained throwing shoulder Monday -- helped seal Cain's fate, too.

A team spokesman said Cain had X-rays taken which showed no significant damage. The injury was diagnosed as a bruise. Cain, who entered the game tied for the second-most wins in the National League, was hit just above his right elbow by San Diego pitcher Tim Stauffer's line drive with two outs. The ball ricocheted off Cain toward the third-base dugout as the Giants pitcher grimaced in pain while walking around on the field. Cain then circled back behind the pitcher's mound where he was met by trainer Dave Groeschner, manager Bruce Bochy and pitching coach Dave Righetti. After a brief conversation, Cain attempted to throw a warmup pitch, but the ball sailed over the head of catcher Eli Whiteside and hit the backstop. Cain was then replaced by right-hander Justin Miller. He had two strikeouts and allowed four hits in his shortest start since Sept. 3, 2007.

Matt Cain struck out five over 6 2/3 frames and allowed one earned run on five hits and a pair of walks in a win over Florida on Monday.

Analysis: That's 10 wins for Cain, who shrunk his ERA to 2.42 in this one. That's the third-best figure in the NL, but it only begins to hint at just how excellent Cain has been this year. After pitching in tough luck for the last couple of seasons, Cain has blossomed into an all-around ace both for the Giants and those fantasy owners lucky enough to have him. He has now allowed one earned run or fewer in eight of his last 10 starts, and is a terrific start when he faces the light-hitting Padres in San Francisco on July 11.
