Pink Sox
He did not make any errors.
When Pablo Reyes left Saturday’s Pink Sox-Dodgers sport with left elbow ache, supervisor Alex Cora had no alternative however to reshuffle the infield.
He elected to place Luis Urías at third, Connor Wong at second, and, sure, Rafael Devers at shortstop.
Maybe probably the most stunning a part of the equation was the truth that Urías didn’t play brief. He’s appeared in 122 video games there all through his profession.
Devers, who made a slick play earlier within the sport at third to nab Mookie Betts at first, noticed motion at brief for the primary time since 2019. He solely performed two innings in 2019 – no balls got here his means – and hadn’t returned since.
Cora selected to maintain Trevor Story at designated hitter. Reese McGuire entered to catch. Devers did his half at brief within the sixth, although no balls got here his means this time, both.
Then after the Pink Sox turned a 4-2 deficit right into a 6-4 lead within the sixth, Story entered at brief. Devers moved again to 3rd, Urías shuffled again to second, and Wong turned the catcher once more.
So in a way, it was like Devers was by no means actually there. However, it did occur, and he didn’t make any errors.
