VIDEO: Jon Lester's Lethal Cutter Sends Ryan Braun Spinning to the Ground Like a Fool

It's been known, practically since the first few months of his career (which started in 2006), that Jon Lester boasts one of baseball's most savage cutters. Though devastating, however, we can't truly recall a time it's movement caused an opposing batter to lose his balance. Well, Saturday evening, the five-time All-Star did just that. Only the Cubs left-hander wasn't facing any ordinary big leaguer: he was doing battle with a six-time All-Star, five-time Silver Slugger, and former NL MVP named Ryan Braun.

It's evident that Braun expected that pitch to land on the outer half of the plate and not savagely break to the inside corner. Most hitters would have felt the same way. You almost never see the Brewers star bamboozled to such an extreme regard.

Lester at his absolute finest, ladies and gents.
