Ecstatic Red Sox Fans Hilariously Celebrate Rafael Devers’ First Hit to End Historic Slump appeared first on EssentiallySports.

For the first five games of the season, Rafael Devers couldn’t buy a hit. The Boston Red Sox slugger was mired in an 0-for-21 slump with a staggering 15 strikeouts, drawing concern from fans and frustration across the lineup.

It’s been a strange spring for Devers, who reported to camp expecting to play his typical third base. However, the Red Sox assigned offseason signee Alex Bregman to the hot corner and moved Devers to designated hitter, a change he initially resisted.
