BOSTON -- Boston Red Sox rookie Eduardo Rodriguez made it look easy, until he didn't.

Contrast? How about 10 straight outs, including five on strikes, to open the game, then seven straight hits, including a two-run home run by Matt Wieters, that produced six Baltimore Orioles runs and ended Rodriguez's afternoon in the fourth inning.
