Instant reactions as Rafael Devers' 440-foot blast and a bounce-back start from Lucas Giolito lead to a big Red Sox series win in KC:
When the Red Sox signed Alex Bregman for third base in the offseason, Devers moved to designated hitter. And when first baseman Triston Casas suffered a season-ending knee injury earlier in May, Devers was asked to play first, a switch that would better fit the roster construction. His response? Not interested.
Devers, who refused a request to replace injured Triston Casas at first base, remained at DH in Saturday's game at Kansas City.

Boston Red Sox designated hitter Rafael Devers is not interested in moving to first base. The latest position switch proposal comes after he was asked earlier this year to cover third base.
