Red Sox Rally to Eke Out Win
Rafael Devers left his imprint on the 4-3 Boston win against the Minnesota Twins. Devers, who finished 4th in the AL in RBI with 115 last year, went 2 for 4 with 2 singles and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Boston reliever Josh Taylor picked up the win to move to 1-0. Taylor Rogers suffered the loss. The Twins fall to 11-16 and continue their uneven start to the 2020 season.

With the game tied in the top of the tenth, Devers hit a run-scoring single to put his team on top.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said Minnesota manager Aaron Gleeman. "But we decided not to take it."
