What the hell are you talking about. The offense and the unearned runs saved the pitching's ass in May. The pitching had a friggin 5.04 era in June. The pitching is still dead last in the al. The pitching has also failed to have an average month where they pitched to the american league average era of 3.85. I do agree that the offense was certainly the biggest problem in may by scoring only 2.8 runs a game, but the red sox offense has had above average run production of 4.2 runs per game in april( over 5 runs a game)' june (over 4.5 runs a game), and july (5.44 runs a game). Overall, our offense has been average and our pitching has been the worst in the al. The offense has been fine except for may, and the pitching was terrible in april, below average in may, a little below average in june, and has been below average so far in july with a 4.78 era. It has obviously been the pitching's fault primarily.
