Cool stuff ... he now knows more about the country by studying for that test than many Americans.

The Associated Press: Red Sox's Jason Bay to become US citizen

The 30-year-old player from Canada becomes a U.S. citizen Thursday afternoon in a ceremony at Boston's historic Faneuil Hall.

Bay is from British Columbia and is the first Red Sox player to be naturalized since Dominican-born David Ortiz was sworn in last summer in Fenway Park.

Just in time for his next big contract.

I wonder how much he'll save in taxes by not being a Canadian citizen?

Would have been better to have his ceremony Saturday on the 4th but he's got a game to play...
