Masataka Yoshida has continued to shine at the plate for the Red Sox despite the team’s overall struggles.
Over his last four games, “Macho Man” has nine hits and three walks but Boston has just one win.
His hot hitting didn’t just start this past weekend however. He’s recorded multiple hits eight times since May 12 and is hitting .355 in his 16 games. Over that same time period, Boston went 6-11 and fell into last place in the AL East.
The offense around Yoshida has been relatively dormant.
