Sox Lose Ground In Mayor's Cup Series

Jon Lester was supposed to go five innings tonight—but he could only go four due to a high pitch count in a jam-filled outing. Once again, while it was not an awful performance, it was shaky, and reminiscent of Lester's occasional wildness from the past.

The lefty walked a man and hit two others—giving up 2 runs. The Red Sox, falling 2-1 to the Twinkies, lost critical ground in the race for the coveted Mayor's Cup.
