With the way the Red Sox have been hitting, they need two big performances from their starters. For all the bitching I've heard about Lester "not being clutch" between 2009 and 2013, he pitched a strong game 1, and improved his postseason career ERA to 2.41 in a tough 1-0 loss. Crazy to think about it, but this isn't the biggest game of his career, or even his second biggest-- and yet it may be the start that defines his career.
Red Sox win 3-2 tonight.
