Devers’ arrival came two days after San Francisco acquired the three-time All-Star in a blockbuster deal with the Red Sox, who received left-hander Kyle Harrison, right-hander Jordan Hicks, 2024 first-round Draft pick James Tibbs III and pitching prospect Jose Bello in return.

Devers was frustrated with Red Sox management for taking away his position at third base, then asking him to play first after an injury to Triston Casas.

Gabriel Arias hit a go-ahead homer in the sixth inning and doubled in the ninth on a night when San Francisco celebrated new slugger Rafael Devers at every chance, and the Cleveland Guardians spoiled the fun by beating the Giants 3-2.
