Rafael Devers followed up Drew Gilbert's two run home run at the top of the fourth inning, and then before the game, obviously, Rafael Devers signing some autographs as he went one for three today with the home run and the walk.
Home run number 26, well on his way to 30 home runs, shall he stay healthy.
And we hope for good health there.
Rafael Devers, the first at bat, struck out looking, and then look at that.
That's power to dead center at Fenway Park.
I mean, and on the second pitch on the back to back, but unfortunately, after that, there was no offense after that.
No.
But, Rafi there getting his, little bit of shine there.
As you can see, there's some excitement in him, pulling his team closer, bringing them into a one run, deficit at that point, keeping the team in the game, adding on to, the home run that Gilbert hit, right before the pitch, right before that.
So back to back pitches, home runs there.
But again, no offense after that.
No.
15 straight hitters up to the plate, 15 straight outs, and then there was a walk there in the ninth inning.
Yep.
And then the last one, there was an out, so 16 of 17 of the last- hitters of the game, I mean, they No.
Not gonna win like that in Beantown.
There was some solid fighting there in the beginning of the game or in the middle of the game there to get close, to bring it into a one-run ballgame, but, kudos to Sonny Gray, who continued his hot streak.
Yep.
And then- 16 wins now, Sergio and then that bullpen, with this E- even though there's a left-handed heavy lineup, they still, you know, so they, they pushed in there, and they used their three lefties that they have in the bullpen, with Eric Miller, former Giant, having a solid outing, kind of enjoying it as well, showing a little bit of personality there at the end of his outing.
Yep.
Then they got Gambo and then Chapman.
I mean, Chapman is 38 years old, still throwing 100 mile an hour bullets.
That's impressive.
