While controversy swirls around what position Rafael Devers might play for the Boston Red Sox in the weeks to come, he's been doing what a designated hitter ideally does best.
Devers' two-run home run in the sixth inning off Seth Lugo was the difference in Boston's 3-1 win over the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium on Sunday. With a 2-for-3 day at the plate, Devers finished off a three-game series during which he batted 7-for-12 (.583) and drove in six runs.
The Red Sox DH also batted 2-for-3 with a home run and two RBI on May 8, shortly after he told reporters that he would not move to first base in light of Triston Casas' season-ending knee injury.
