Rafael Devers wasted no time in making up for his ninth-inning error Thursday night.
In the top of the first inning during Friday’s Boston Red Sox game against the Chicago White Sox, the third baseman gave his team a quick 3-0 lead with his first home run of the season.
Devers drove the first pitch he saw, a 94-mph fastball, to straight-away center field.

Yeah, there was no doubt about that one.
Devers’ last home run came in Game 5 in the American League Championship Series against the Houston Astros when he took ace Justin Verlander deep for a three-run shot.
