WATCH: Jon Lester receives standing ovation after videoboard tribute

'Big Jon' is back at Wrigley Field.

It's a little strange but former Cubs pitcher Jon Lester was back in town as a member of the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday afternoon.

The Cubs gave him a nice video tribute acknowledging his 200th win.

Lester gave a tip of the cap to the Wrigley Field faithful that gave him a standing ovation as he is still very much one of Chicago's favorite sons.

Lester will get the start on Saturday against the Northsiders.
