VIDEO: Cubs' Lester snags grounder, tosses entire glove to Rizzo for out

Caylor Arnold-USA TODAY Sports

All-Star left-hander Jon Lester has trouble throwing the ball to first base. His glove? No problem.

Lester conquered his well-documented fears of throwing to first Sunday with the most creative 1-3 putout of the year to retire San Diego Padres shortstop Clint Barmes.

Glove tap to Chicago Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo for holding it together, literally.
