Jon Lester Makes Fun Of Anthony Rizzo And Kyle Schwarber After Cubs Walk-Off Win
Jon Lester, the Cubs ace and stand-up comedian!
The Cubs haven’t played their best defense during the past couple days and Tuesday night against the Marlins was a little shaky too. Lester pitched six innings and gave up two runs, but none were earned.
A Kyle Schwarber error led to the unearned runs in the third inning and in the sixth inning Anthony Rizzo almost botched an easy ground ball hit to first for the final out of the inning.
Luckily, the Cubs ended up winning, as Kris Bryant hit a three-run walk-off homer in the ninth. After the win, Lester joked around in his post-game press conference, making fun of Rizzo and Schwarber.
"God knows what he's doing over there…"

And you bet Lester was pissed when Schwarber missed that ball in left, but when you win you can bust balls.
