Jon Lester, the former Bellarmine Prep star now with the Boston Red Sox, has been scratched from his Tuesday start and sent back to Boston to have his sore back examined.
Lester was involved in a minor car accident on Aug. 18 before his scheduled start against the New York Yankees. Since then, he's been bothered by a sore back. He had an initial examination in Seattle but team officials decided to send him home on Sunday rather than wait and se if there was improvement before his scheduled start against Oakland.
In his rookie season, Lester is 7-2 with a 4.76 ERA.
