Jon Lester perfect for six Grapefruit innings
Jon Lester - S - Boston Red Sox
March 17, 2013 - 4:55 PM ET

Jon Lester was perfect for six innings, striking out six, in a win over the Rays on Sunday.

Anthony Carter and Joel Hanrahan kept the perfect game going until the ninth, when non-roster right-hander Marco Duarte allowed two hits and a run. Lester has been terrific this spring and appears poised for a bounce-back season. His fantasy stock is on the rise.
