    Boston newspapers have to be happy this happened on a night the Celts weren't playing, assuming they have the big gun columnists at Fenway tonight and didn't get the night off. This is the kind of story a columnist dreams of.

    Didn't Lester have some major medical issues a couple years ago? I want to say cancer. But I think I'm confusing him with someone else, maybe.

    Is no-hitting the Royals really that big of a deal?

    But good for the Red Sox, at least they'll get some coverage on SportsCenter tonight.

    I saw this just in time to watch the 9th inning. Thanks.

    Clled my buddy in Maine. He got his 8 year old out of bed to watch the bottom of the 9th. Cool dad. Son will always remember that.
