Red Sox: Rafael Devers is developing his own Moon shots

Dredging up history seems all in vogue the last few months, but I will avoid the current herd mentality and concentrate on baseball history. In this instance, it is a connection of the present to the past. The sudden emergence of Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers reminds me of another left-handed batter who had a knack for finding left field walls – Wally Moon.

During the offseason of 1958, two separate Dodger moments in history happened. The first is a move from a decaying Brooklyn to the new and fertile Los Angeles area.
