ESPN.com: Divorcing Pedro and Nomar

A great "Page 2" article on ESPN.com by columnist and Red Sox fanatic Bill Simmons, Divorcing Pedro and Nomar, which is a fun read despite the shots he takes at Grady.

I have very few rules in life, but here's one of them: Any time Pedro Martinez pitches against Derek Lowe, Nomar Garciaparra and Grady Little in a National League game taking place 3,000 miles from Boston, and the date of the game happens to be 6/6/6, I have to attend this game and write a column about it. Well, as long as the apocalypse doesn't coincide with the seventh-inning stretch.

How did we get here? Seriously, I'm asking you … how the hell did we get here? We always hear words like "amazing" and "unbelievable" in sports -- no two words get beaten into the ground more, actually -- but this night was genuinely amazing and unbelievable. Pedro and the Mets taking on D-Lowe, Nomar, Grady and the Dodgers on 6/6/6? Could it have happened on any other date?
