SF Giants Fall to Red Sox in Rafael Devers’ First Game Against Former Team

  • On June 21, 2025, Rafael Devers played his first game against the Boston Red Sox at Oracle Park as the San Francisco Giants' designated hitter and went hitless in five at-bats.
  • Devers' appearance followed a five-player trade completed the previous Sunday that sent him from Boston to San Francisco, generating anticipation for his first matchup with his former team.
  • The game featured multiple lead changes, with San Francisco leading early and Boston overcoming deficits thanks to key plays by Ceddanne Rafaela and Roman Anthony's first career RBI single.
  • In his initial at-bat, Devers was warmly acknowledged by the crowd before grounding out, and over the course of the game, he also recorded two groundouts and two flyouts—one of which was a deep hit to left-center field—before striking out on a 101.8 mph fastball from Aroldis Chapman in the ninth inning.
  • Boston won 7-5, extending their win streak to eight in nine games and closing their division gap to four games behind the Yankees, while Devers struggled to impact the game offensively.
