Red Sox: Walk reduction may have saved pitching staff

“Walk This Way” is an iconic rock song by Aerosmith and also symptomatic of the Boston Red Sox pitching staff.

The other night in Houston, the Red Sox attempted to give away a game by walking the bases loaded. Like any reasonable Red Sox fan, I was in full “Can’t anyone on this team throw a strike?” mode. Followed quickly by dumping pitching coach Carl Willis and partner in pitching tutelage Brian Bannister.

That was my taste of idiocy for the evening since I was dead wrong. Totally and 100% wrong.
