After pitching Sunday in San Diego, Cubs’ ace Jon Lester doesn’t have to worry about getting into Tuesday’s All-Star Game at National Park.
Lester is fine with that, and said Monday he’ll be watching with interest like every other Cubs fan, albeit with a much better seat.
“I think the big thing for me is watching these two knuckleheads over here having fun,” Lester said of teammates Javier Baez and Willson Contreras. “I’m excited for them. Obviously I’m excited to be here for myself, but I get to kick my feet up and watch these guys.
