Offense Good, Offense Bad

Offense good - win 6-3.  Offense bad - lose 2-0.  That's the way the day went for the Red Sox as they split a twin bill with the Twinkies at Fenway Park.  Both games featured excellent starting pitching by Eduardo Rodriguez & Rick Porcello.  Rodriguez gave up 1 run in 7 innings & Porcello gave up 2 runs in 8 innings.  Both efforts should have resulted in 2 W's.  But the fickle Red Sox offense took the nightcap off & they were shutout.  I see a lot of swings & misses by Sox batters on balls out of the strike zone.  You can't be an effective hitter when you swing at balls & help the other pitcher out.  And Hanley, please stop swinging at every 1st pitch you see.  Every opposing pitcher knows that if I do.  Pitching & defense are keeping the Red Sox in close games.  Time for the offense to perform or time for more changes, like the recent signings of De Aza & Peguero.
