You always can count on Michael Chavis as a quote machine.
And did he ever have a take on Boston Red Sox teammate Rafael Devers.
The young third baseman, who now is hitting .323, went 2-for-5 with two RBIs, two runs scored and a homer in Boston’s 19-3 pummeling of the New York Yankees on Thursday night at Fenway Park. It was yet another magnificent performance from Devers, one of the game’s bright young stars, and it led to a hilarious, albeit NSFW quote from Chavis.
“He’s a grown man-child,” Chavis told reporters, per MassLive.com. “You see him go about his business and you’re like, look at that little 6-year-old. Then he swings and you’re like holy (expletive).”
He’s not exactly wrong.
The Red Sox and Yankees will get back at it Friday night, with Andrew Cashner on the mound for Boston.
