Jon Lester is no longer teammates with Jose Iglesias, but it seems he was channeling the young defensive wiz's spirit when the pair faced off Thursday night.
Jon Lester glove flip nabs Jose Iglesias at first
Iglesias tapped a bunt back to the mound, and as he was busting down the line, Lester realized he was running out of time to nab the youngster at first base. After an initial attempt at gloving the ball resulted in a bobble, Lester managed to nip it in webbing and flip his glove up just enough for the ball to carry to Mike Napoli, beating Iglesias by a step.
Iglesias, of course, has been the human highlight reel of the game so far, but Lester is giving him a run for the money ... albeit in a slightly less graceful capacity.
