As Jon Lester had it rolling against the New York Mets on Wednesday night in New York, the Chicago Cubs ace gave fans a scare after seemingly rolling his ankle.
Great, Lester is hurt

Hopefully just a simple ankle roll or something that will be fine. But landed awkwardly and limps off the mound.

Lester stayed in the game and shook it off. After six innings, he has given up zero runs, five hits and has recorded seven strikeouts while walking zero.
No action in the Cubs pen so Lester must be ok to keep going...

So yeah Lester is clearly fine
