The Toronto Blue Jays must be thrilled that they are almost done with this series at Fenway Park. After wrapping up the finale of a four-game set this afternoon, the Jays won’t face the Boston Red Sox again until September, sparing them from being terrorized by Rafael Devers until then.
Devers continued to punish Blue Jays pitching with three hits last night to drive in four runs. That includes the go-ahead home run in the third inning and some desperately needed insurance runs in a game the Red Sox bullpen barely hung on to win.
The four RBI gave Devers 25 this season against the Blue Jays, surpassing David Ortiz (2005) for the most single-season RBI by a player against Toronto.
