Lester having the reputation for being bad at holding runners has led to so many caught stealings and pickoffs.

I think Lester exposes how risk adverse most MLB teams are to base running. Even with Ross behind the plate guys should be stealing a lot more on Lester. He simply will not throw over no matter how big your lead is. If he does attempt to toss over because you are half way to 2nd then you don't even bother trying to go back to 1st just run to second and you'll likely make it before Rizzo can throw you out. I can't figure out why teams aren't taking massive leads and constantly stealing, it just shows how afraid MLB teams are of the base running game.

loving hell what a game by Lester. Dude has just been killing it since the second half.

Also was I the only one who noticed Rizzo just standing frozen in his crouch as Lester took it to first past him unassisted? :allears:

Do not make any sudden movements or you will spook the Lester and he'll drop the ball.

I only regret we didn't sweep and win the division in St. Louis. But I really hope we get a win tomorrow to clinch instead of it being a Cards loss.

We're going to a taping of Wait Wait Don't Tell Me tomorrow so we'll only be able to catch the end of the game. :ohdear:

WWDT Is super fun if you've never been. Though the one time we went Peter Segal was out that week but the guy who filled in was good. It's pretty cool to see how they record it, lots of fun bits you don't get to hear on the show.

Alternatively, please suck Giants so that the Cubs can clinch under their own power instead of stumbling over the finish line for a second year in a row.
