Alex Cora Congratulates Xander Bogaerts, Rafael Devers After Silver Slugger Awards
'We are proud of you'
A pair of Boston Red Sox stars earned some hardware this season, despite falling just short of a World Series berth.
Both Xander Bogaerts and Rafael Devers took home Silver Slugger Awards for the American League, Major League Baseball announced Thursday.
It was the fourth time in his career that Bogaerts earned the designation, but his counterpart at third base received the honor for the first time after five years in the majors.
Their manager shared his praise on Twitter after news broke.
“Xander/Carita we are proud of you,” Alex Cora tweeted out.
Red Sox outfielder Hunter Renfroe also was a finalist.
