Carl Crawford is the player the Red Sox hoped he'd be -- in day games. Before the sun goes down, Crawford is 42-for-133 with 17 extra-base hits (three triples, five homers) which computes to a .316/.350/.541 batting line. The average ranks 16th in the AL and the slugging ranks ninth. In night games, however, Crawford has a .221/.258/.339 batting line. Among league qualifiers, the average ranks 62nd out of 68 qualifiers and the OBP is 65th. He never previously had such a strong split, leaving one to speculate whether his vision has changed or whether leaving the home sightlines of a dome have played a role.
