Summary
Rafael Devers blew up after being pulled in the ninth inning, visibly frustrated when manager Tony Vitello substituted him for a pinch runner — despite Devers signaling he was ready to stay in. Vitello defended the move, citing Devers’ leg soreness and the strategic advantage of a faster runner, Jonah Cox. The young manager actually embraced Devers’ fiery reaction, calling it the kind of competitive fire he wants — even preferring players who fight to stay in the game over those who beg to be removed.
