Lester Throws Compete Game Gem In 7-0 Win Over Yankees
The Boston Red Sox needed Jon Lester to be at his best tonight and help out the beleaguered bullpen. Lester did that and then some as he threw a 5-hit complete game shutout as the Red Sox beat the New York Yankees 7-0 in front 54,677 fans at Yankee Stadium. The win for the Red Sox put an end to a 5-game losing streak.
