E-Rod excellent in 12-K return, as Red Sox roll

Red Sox manager Alex Cora wasn’t exactly certain what he would get out of Eduardo Rodriguez on Saturday night. It didn’t take long for Rodriguez to give Cora his answer. In his first Major League start since July 14, Rodriguez struck out a season-high 12 hitters and began his outing with four perfect innings against the White Sox en route to a 6-1 victory at Guaranteed Rate Field .
