Rafael Devers to miss remainder of series vs. Yankees, 2 Red Sox players placed on IL

The hits keep on coming for the Red Sox.

Rafael Devers, who was named the American League’s starting third baseman for the All-Star Game on Friday, will miss the remaining two games of the series against the Yankees with a back injury. Devers aggravated the injury by chasing a foul ball and on a swing before getting pulled after four innings of play.

Devers, who missed Tuesday and Wednesday’s games against the Rays, has been dealing with lower back pain since the series against the Blue Jays in Toronto from June 27-29, according to Red Sox manager Alex Cora.
