Asked about changing his mind in the event the Red Sox receive little production from the current group of first basemen, Devers reiterated that he’s a full-time DH. He also stated that he was upset that Boston would consider him taking over a position where he’s logged zero innings as a big leaguer.

The Rangers were 0 for 7 with runners in scoring position, grounded into two double plays and hit into multiple force outs. In total they left nine men on base.
