Lester Sizzles, Chicago Fizzles
Tuesday, June 20th , 1972
Phil Lester bent a little, but he didn't break against the Chicago Hawks. The Los Angeles Pobladores pitcher hurled a 7-hit, 8-0 shutout in a fine performance, surrendering 1 walk and tallying 7 strikeouts.

"Phil is good at getting out of jams," Pobladores manager Kurt Peterson told reporters after the game. "He's almost more effective when he gets guys on base or gets behind in the count, because he uses your aggressiveness against you."

In 16 starts this season, Lester has recorded 6 wins and absorbed 8 losses. He has pitched 125 innings, allowed 136 hits, struck out 59 and has a 3.60 ERA.
