A lot has been said about John Lackey‘s antics when he’s on the mound for the Boston Red Sox.

We’ve seen him give skipper Terry Francona an earful when he’s taken him out of the game. We’ve seen him shrug his shoulders or put his arms in the air in disgust after a miscue by one of the fielders.

Now last night after Jacoby Ellsbury made a great running catch, we saw something we’ve never seen from Lackey before. A tip of the cap towards Ellsbury after making the catch.

So if you blinked and missed it last night, strap yourself into the chair or wherever you’re sitting because I guess you’ll just have to see it to believe it.
