Cleon Daskalakis Flashes Fancy Footwork at Fenway When you’re a local legend like Cleon Daskalakis, you can pretty much get away with anything in the city of Boston.

Figure skating on the infield of Fenway Park included. On Friday afternoon, the former Boston University and Bruins goalie took part in the First Skate at Fenway Park. Daskalakis, a Boston native, won 53 games for the Terriers from 1980 to 1984, but on Friday, he scored a quick lesson with former Olympian Alice Cook.

Comment of the Day

With the addition of Mike Cameron to the Red Sox, many wonder what part of the outfield Jacoby Ellsbury will be calling home next summer. Cameron has a trophy case of Gold Glove awards, while Ellsbury is still blossoming into a rangy center fielder. He also happens to be a fan favorite, especially among female members of the Nation.

One NESN.com reader hopes manager Terry Francona sticks to defensive stats rather than the cries of the peanut gallery when filling out the lineup card next season.

“How does this ‘prove defensive statistics are essentially meaningless?’ This was a fans’ vote. I’m guessing a high percentage of the ‘fans’ who voted for Ellsbury wear pink hats and have posters of Chad Kroeger on the walls of their bedrooms.”
