5/23/25 | Devers drives in eight as Red Sox rout Orioles. Rafael Devers had a career-high eight RBI between the sixth and eighth innings to lead the Boston Red Sox to a 19-5 win over the visiting Baltimore Orioles in the first game of a Friday day-night doubleheader. The Red Sox untied a 2-2 game in the midst of a five-run sixth inning, which Devers (4-for-6) punctuated with a three-run home run. The doors were not blown off, though, until all nine Boston batters came to the plate twice in a 13-run eighth. The second turn through the lineup in the eighth included Devers hitting a grand slam off Orioles' position player Emmanuel Rivera, who allowed eight runs and eight hits in 13 batters faced.

5/21/25 | Pedro Martinez Goes On Rant About How Red Sox 'Midhandled' Rafael Devers. The Boston Red Sox recently were in some drama after asking Rafael Devers to move to first base.

5/15/25 | How difficult would it be for Rafael Devers to learn to play first base? Former players have mixed opinions..
