It’s time for a series, and it’s a big one. The Boston Red Sox are in town to visit the San Francisco Giants, and, just five days after the big trade, Rafael Devers will face his old team. He won’t be playing first base, though.
The Giants also made a roster move before the game, calling up infielder Brett Wisely and placing pitcher Justin Verlander on paternity leave. Hoping for the best for Justin and his wife Kate Upton!
Taking the mound for the Giants is righty Hayden Birdsong. In 16 games, including five starts, the youngster is 3-1 with a 2.
