WATCH: Jon Lester Taking Care of it Himself
After working his way out of a first-inning jam created by the defense (natch), Jon Lester watched as a missed hit-and-run sign cost the Cubs a baserunner in the second inning, maybe pondered how the offense might let an opportunity slip by, then saw a runner there at third base with one out, and must have decided it was time to take matters into his own hands.

That’s an early 1-0 lead for the Cubs, and so far, it’s been all Jon Lester.
