The Red Sox secured a 6-1 victory on Friday but lost Triston Casas to what manager Alex Cora said was a "significant" knee injury.

Rafael Devers hit a key two-run single in the seventh inning as the Boston Red Sox rallied for five late runs to beat the visiting Minnesota Twins 6-1 in the opener of a three-game weekend series on Friday night.

The dust has settled on Rafael Devers' move to designated hitter, even if a few lazy trade rumors are still prone to circulation. Devers, the long-time Red Sox third baseman, was moved off his preferred position to make room for Gold Glover Alex Bregman to take over the hot corner.
