Red Sox manager John Farrell believes Xander Bogaerts may be chasing pitches that aren't in the strike zone. However, Bogaerts believes he's been unlucky at the plate lately, the Boston Herald reports.
"I've got a few at-bats where I've hit the ball hard right at someone," Bogaerts said. "In Toronto, I hit into a double play with a runner on second on a hard-hit ball. When it ain't falling, it ain't falling. But (the hits) are right around the corner. They're coming. It's a matter of time, man, once it all turns around."
The rookie shortstop has just four hits in his last 32 at-bats, with eight strikeouts with runners in scoring position. He is hitting .268 with one home run and five RBI in 112 at-bats.
