Rafael Devers pushed back against picking up a glove to play defense during his run with the Red Sox. But, he struck a different tone after he joined the Giants.

Very few hitters on the planet could do what Rafael Devers did on Wednesday afternoon in Atlanta.

“Definitely. It keeps me active,” Devers told reporters through translator Erwin Higueros.

It may have happened 38 days later, but the version of Rafael Devers the San Francisco Giants had in mind when they traded for him has finally arrived. The 28-year-old slugger had his best game of the season for his new team on Wednesday, going 3-for-5 with two home runs: one that was a no-doubter, and another that was hard to believe.
