I am praaaaaying that when williams/giambi comes to bat, the fenway faithful starts: "baaaaaaaaaaaalco, baaaaaaaaaaaalco". Would that ever make my day.

Not to be picky, but Williams didn't use BALCO, it was Sheffield.

Anyway, great frickin game, great win for Sox, great start by Pedro, and great couple of games coming up.

yup, that was a typo, I meant shef. Its changed now.

I have a question regarding some plays in that game. Both Crespo and Kapler dove into first base to beat out infield hits. Does this really get you there faster, or is it just an injury risk for over-eager players?

I hate to see players dive like that directly onto the base. It seems like a broken hand/finger waiting to happen to me.
