From 2001 through 2004, he co-chaired the National Baseball Hall of Fame & Museum's groundbreaking "Out of the Shadows" project, which unearthed huge amounts of new data about Negro Leagues baseball. As the chairman of SABR's Negro Leagues Committee, Lester organizes the annual Jerry Malloy Conference, and has has been honored by numerous awards, including the Henry Chadwick Award, which recognizes baseball's top researchers for their invaluable contributions to making baseball the game that links America's present with its past.
