Rafael Devers set a Boston Red Sox record when he homered for the sixth consecutive game in Monday night\'s 5-0 win over the Tampa Bay Rays.
He is the first Major Leaguer to do it since Mike Trout had a seven-game streak from Sept. 4-12, 2022.
\"I\'m very proud to be in that conversation with him,\" Devers said through an interpreter. \"Obviously we know the type of superstar that he is. He\'s a future Hall of Famer and superstar, and to be in the same level with him is very nice.\"
Devers had shared the club mark of five with Jimmie Foxx (1940), Ted Williams (1957), Dick Stuart (1963), George Scott (1977), Jose Canseco (1995) and Bobby Dalbec (2020).
