Sometimes there are bigger stories than rivalries and W-L records. This is one of them. Good luck to John Lester of the BoSox as he reaches the end of his long road back.
Gracious post, George. I left work early so that I could be home to see Lester's start. I was very pleased with his outing, particularly when he struck out Sizemore - who'd homered off him in the prior inning - to escape the 4th with the bases loaded.
