Gerrit Cole half-joked last summer that he was “open to suggestions” while trying to figure out how to get out Red Sox slugger Rafael Devers.Devers took the Yankees’ ace deep for the seventh time in their careers Friday night, the most home runs Cole has surrendered to any one batter over 11 big-league seasons.
“I’ve had times where I’ve switched pitches, and he’s been on them. I’ve had times where I’ve stayed stubborn, and he’s been on them. They paid him $300 million for a reason. He’s a good player, man. Just a good player and I haven’t come across any other player quite like him.” He went deep twice against Cole in a game last July at Fenway Park, leading to the All-Star hurler’s “open to suggestions” plea.
Two innings later, Devers crushed a first-pitch changeup from Cole the other way for a solo homer into the visiting bullpen in left-center for a 2-0 Boston advantage.Corey Sipkin for the NY Post
