Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora told the media pregame that he has not spoken to Rafael Devers about switching from designated hitter to first base, and has no plans of talking with him about it.

Boston Red Sox designated hitter Rafael Devers has been reluctant to answer questions about a possible defensive shift to first base.

The Red Sox need a new first baseman after Triston Casas suffered a season-ending knee injury last week, and many have wondered if Rafael Devers could fill that role for the team.
