Royals No-hit

In light of the recent no hitter hatched on the Royals it's an obvious choice for my first post on 1 Royal Way. Not only were the Royals no-hit they were beat by 7 runs. The event is somewhat surprising as Jon Lester, the third pitcher in the Red Sox rotation is the man that pulled off the feat, Gaining his first complete game and of course first no-hitter. Lester's story is a remarkable one as he has just won a recent battle with cancer, and faced trade rumors that had him going to the Twins in a deal for Johan Santana. The BoSox wouldn't give up Lester and maybe for good reason as Lester is part of a promising rotation witch includes Beckett, Matsuzaka, and Bucholz. The intriguing thing to watch will be the Royals reaction to the sound beating they were dealt by the Sox young gun.
