The bigger story is that Freeland blew the no hitter. Lester's shitty game was just a really bad day. It could happen to anybody.

Lester became a part of a select group of pitchers with that performance
Yeah, pitchers that have bad days. Mainly all of them. The kid choked on a no-hitter. He may never get the opportunity for a no-hitter ever again. That disappointment is like stealing a puppy from a little disabled kid.

Yeah, he choked, he's a rookie that had only 17 starts in the majors before yesterday and in the 25 years at Coors Field, there's only been one no hitter ever pitched, but yeah, he "choked"Originally Posted by DemonGeminiX
That's making history
2 outs away and he blew it. Dominating the entire game then giving up a hit. That's choking. Or technically, the team choked. A no-hitter is an entire team effort. Anyway, that's a confidence breaker. That kid's headed for the minors. Mark my words.
Lester's been in the league for years. He'll shake it off.

Did you know that Nolan Ryan lost FIVE no-hitters all with one out in the ninth inning? Does that mean he choked all those times?
It means the entire team choked all 5 times.

Oh, the All Star game was yesterday
Damn Yips.
I wanted to be a Monk, but I never got the chants.
I was at last Thursday's 11-2 debacle, Cubs hosting Brewers. It was awesome to see Jon Jay pitch the 9th. All pitches betweeen 45 and 65 MPH with the scoreboard auto-tagging "changeup" on every one.He gave up 1 hit and no runs and got the loudest ovation of the day.
Loved it.
More importantly, my deceased brother has a brick paver in the sidewalk at Wrigley. It was his 50th birthday present from us. We took my 83 year old mother to the game. She hadn't been to Wrigley in 40-45 years, despite watching the games on TV like her mother listened to them on radio before her. She has had a number of joint replacements and surgeries and felt like she could do it. She was a trooper, and finally got to see her son's brick in the sidewalk. It still gives me pause.
