Eduardo Rodriguez would not be enough to save the Red Sox from the loss of Clay Buchholz. But if we're just talking a few weeks, he might be able to hold down the fort.
Coming off a night which saw the lineup shut down, Clay Buchholz leave with injury, and the Sox fall in what had been arguably their most important game of the season to date, Boston was a team in need of a boost. Saturday night, they got just that courtesy another strong start from Eduardo Rodriguez, a big swing from Hanley Ramirez, and positive performances in just about all the places you'd hope.
