The Los Angeles Dodgers are trying to get into the head of Chicago Cubs Game 5 starter Jon Lester, and so far it's not working.
After Kike Hernandez tried to taunt Lester into throwing the ball over to first base with a gigantic lead in the game's opening inning, Joc Pederson forced the southpaw to make a play on a bunt and get over his fear of throwing to first.
Lester answered the call by bouncing a ball to first baseman Anthony Rizzo, who made a nice grab to get the out.
After making the play, Lester delivered quite the glare to the Dodgers' bench.
