Big Start for Lester

As a pitcher, you don't forget. Jon Lester knows that Matt Garza beat him in Game 7 of the ALCS last year.

As a pitcher, you also can't wait to redeem yourself if you came out on the short-end of the first meeting. Lester pitched well, but Garza pitched better & that's how it goes sometimes. Believe me, though, Lester wants to win Round 2.

It should be a great start to a series of games against playoff contenders -- Rays, Yankees, Tigers & Rangers. After these 13 games we will no more about the Red Sox & their playoff picture. Get ready, Red Sox fans, for a fun 2 weeks.
