pandas plot replace xticks

I am plotting grouped panda data frame 

score = pd.DataFrame()
score['Score'] = svm_score
score['Wafer_Slot'] = desc.Wafer_Slot[test_index].tolist()

gscore = score.groupby('Wafer_Slot')
score_plot = [score for ws, score in gscore]

ax = gscore.boxplot(subplots=False)
ax.set_xticklabels(range(52)) # does not work
plt.xlabel('Wafer Slot')
plt.show()

It is working well but the x axis is impossible to read as there are numerous numbers overlapping. I would like the x axis be a counter of the boxplot.

How can I do that?

The boxplot method doesn't return the axes object like the plot method of DataFrames and Series. Try this: 

gscore.boxplot(subplots=False)
ax = plt.gca()
ax.set_xticklabels(range(52))

The boxplot method returns a dict or OrderedDict of dicts of line objects by the look of it.
