Jon Lester Beats Cancer, Royals

·1 min

What a game, and what a story. To think it all started with what in retrospect was a lucky car crash. The no-hitter was one of those ’true’ no-hitters - KC looked overmatched, and Lester looked like he could throw any one of his pitches anywhere he wanted, in any count.

Four no-hitters in the 2000s. What a run Varitek has caught. And here’s to the youth movement. Congrats to Lester.
