Red Sox's Dustin Pedroia: Hitting out of six-hole

Pedroia went 3-for-4 in Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Cubs while batting sixth.

Analysis:

Pedroia is 5-for-7 with a walk and a run scored since being dropped to that spot in the batting order. It really doesn't matter where Pedroia bats. He'll rake out of any spot in the order. It likely will cost him several at-bats per week compared to his former place near the top and perhaps affect his chances to create runs, though.
