Jon Lester pitched five scoreless innings and struck out 10, six looking, and hit a two-run homer in the seven-run fourth inning as the Cubs picked up a win in the Cactus League finale at Sloan Park.

The Cubs broke out the bats against a Rockies’ split squad. But Wednesday was all about Jon Lester in his final tune-up of the spring.

Lester put together his best start in Arizona. Lester allowed just one hit and walked one.
