I can't believe Lester is not criticized more in the media for not being able to throw to first. It is inexcusable to not be able to throw a 50 mph toss to 1st base just to keep them close.

They should probably bench Lester until he learns to throw to first.

Replace umps with a Press Your Luck board. The sound of the ball hitting the glove stops the lights and whatever you land on is the call.
