Rafael Devers of the Red Sox was absent from the lineup due to left-shoulder soreness for two consecutive games against the Seattle Mariners. Manager Cora indicated Devers would return the next day for a potential pinch-hit appearance. Devers did indeed rejoin the lineup the following day against Oakland, playing third base. The Red Sox lineup for the game against Oakland included Duran LF, Devers 3B, Story SS, Casas 1B, O'Neill RF, Yoshida DH, Valdez 2B, Rafaela CF, McGuire C, and Houck P.

Devers should be back in the lineup tomorrow, Cora said. Sounds like they could use him for a pinch hit appearance tonight.
