Lester Reaches 200 Strikeouts

Jon Lester hit a milestone yesterday on his way to a big win for the Bosox. He reached the 200 strikout plateau & is the only lefty in Sox history to do so.

Lester says strikouts are nice, but wins are better. He did both yesterday by adding 8 strikeouts & a win to his 2009 stats. One sports show mentioned that he has not lost in his last 9 starts.

Thank you. We need it in September. When all others Red Sox starters are up & down Lester provided a much needed quality start & win on a night when the Yankees, Rangers & Rays all lost.

Now it's Beckett's turn to keep the momentum going.
