Wish they could get Cobb's pitch count up...68 through 5 - time to get to him.
Our own Cy is looking damn good

Mitch Moreland was maybe the only Red Sox hitter hitting over his true talent level but now he's hit by the regression. His OPS is now under the .800 mark.

Red Sox have two types of luck today on offense - none, and bad.

Jeez, I bet Porcello wishes he could get half the runs he got last year.

BREAKING NEWS - Red Sox get their first break. Will they capitalize?

Can you remember the last time anybody swinging at strike 1 on this team?

Can you remember the last time anybody swinging at strike 1 on this team? Good observation. I suspect it is trying to balance working the opposing pitcher's count up...but word must be out there that a grooved first pitch will rarely be swung at.

Is Cobb this good, or are the Sox hitters just having a terrible day? Depressing....

The pitches we are getting are very hittable. But unfortunately our offense is in siesta mode!

Our outfield is very very very good. JBJ would be proud of that catch!

This was 2016 Porcello again, but without the run support. That's good news though.

Talk about hitting them where they ain't. And what is a Mallex Smith?

Why does the Red Sox offense go on vacation when Rick Porcello pitches?

Is there something wrong with JBJ? He should have hit for Young to leadoff the 8th.

Mookie could use an off day soon.

Why does the Red Sox offense go on vacation when Rick Porcello pitches? It seems to be an all or nothing kind of offense so far this season - but somehow enough to get us well into first. With more consistency we'd be double digits games up.

Big picture guys! If we're getting the 2016 Porcello for the second half, we're in a very good position.

Mookie could use an off day soon. He is about to have a bunch with the all-star break coming.

There we go - alarm clock went off. Lovely smoker by Moreland....close on that check swing!

If only Moreland hit that a little softer, Xander would have scored.

Freaking Hanley, you need a base hit not a homerun.

Oh Hanley, Hanley - where is your brain? What planet are you from? And where is JBJ?
