Jon Lester steals ESPN Spotlight Meant for Berkman and Soriano

The two hottest hitters going right now (both doing things almost unheard of in baseball history), litterly no one has been as hot as these two hitters have been recently, were featured on ESPN Monday night baseball. Cubs verse Astros.

Instead, the game switched away from the close game to a 7-0 Boston beatdown of the Kansas City Royals.

Why?

Jon Lester was in the midst of a no-hitter. He got it too.

Meanwhile in Houston, Soriano and Berkman each went 0-4 in the Cubs 7-2 win to open the first Cubs/Astros series in Houston that I won't attend any games of since the opening of Minute Maid.

Oh well, you know what they say, good pitching will always beat good pitching. Congratulations to Lester on the first no hitter of the season.
