In his comeback to the lineup after missing two games due to a calf injury, Rafael Devers had a challenging outing, going hitless in five at-bats and striking out twice against the Arizona Diamondbacks.In Phoenix, the Arizona Diamondbacks secured a 4-2 triumph over the Boston Red Sox, propelled by an impressive performance from pitcher Merrill Kelly, who matched his season-high by striking out 10 batters in 6 and 1/3 innings. Corbin Carroll also contributed strongly to the victory with a two-run home run. In the seventh inning, Alex Verdugo of the Red Sox singled which brought in a run against Andrew Chafin, cutting the score to 4-1. However, Chafin, the left-handed pitcher, rebounded immediately by striking out Rafael Devers to end the inning.Batting in the second position and assuming his role at third base, the two-time American League All-Star's return to the lineup had enabled Justin Turner to reclaim his designated hitter position. Furthermore, Devers' comeback allowed Masataka Yoshida to resume his outfield duties, as he had temporarily filled the role of the Red Sox's designated hitter in the initial two games of the series in Phoenix.The official Twitter account of the Boston Red Sox posted the final results of their game against the Arizona Diamondbacks.Red Sox@RedSoxFINAL: Dbacks 4, #RedSox 219426FINAL: Dbacks 4, #RedSox 2"FINAL: Dbacks 4, #RedSox 2" - Red Sox had posted.MLB Twitter was furious as to how the return of Rafael Devers made the team lose instead of making the team's performance better.Fred Katz@fredkat24839578@BallParkBuzz Devers goes for the fence every time he's up.
