Rafael Devers Walks Twice, Hit By Pitch Friday
8 months agoBoston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers went 0-for-2 with two walks and was hit by a pitch in Friday's 8-6 win over the Angels. Devers was hit in the knuckles by a pitch from Jose Suarez in the sixth inning but was able to stay in the game. Afterward, the 2x All-Star had his hand in a wrap, although the slugger said he'd be fine. Hopefully he will be as it looked like fellow infielder Trevor Story suffered a painful injury Friday that will cause him to miss some time. Devers is 5-for-25 (.200) to start 2024, with a pair of doubles, a home run, two RBI, three runs scored, and a 4:4 BB:K. The Red Sox are 6-2 despite the 27-year-old off to a bit of a slow start, but they'll need him to get rolling soon as Jarren Duran and Tyler O'Neill will cool off eventually.
