SAN FRANCISCO -- Rafael Devers just had arguably his best game as a Giant.
He got things started in the bottom of the first inning on Wednesday when he demolished a splitter right down the middle from Colin Rea 410 feet to straightaway center for a solo home run.
Devers poured it on later in the sixth inning on a sinker in the same location from Cubs reliever Taylor Rogers, pulling it over the left-field fence for a three-run blast to put the cap on a 4-for-4 performance with two home runs, a double and five RBIs in the Giants’ 12-3 walloping of the Cubs at Oracle Park. He was a triple shy of a cycle.
Devers also scored twice from third base, on a sacrifice fly from Dominic Smith in the third and in the fifth on a bloop single from Matt Chapman, which would turn into a bizarre seque
