Rafael Devers homered and drove in two runs, and five Boston pitchers combined for a five-hit shutout as the Red Sox defeated the Texas Rangers 5-0 on Thursday afternoon.

The Rangers were 0 for 7 with runners in scoring position, grounded into two double plays and hit into multiple force outs. In total they left nine men on base.

The Red Sox signed Alex Bregman to a contract this offseason and in doing so, apparently alienated their most important player.
