Things continue to go from bad to worse for Red Sox star Rafael Devers after striking out three more times on Monday in a loss to the Orioles in Baltimore.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The tough day at the plate saw Devers go 0-for-3 with two walks and three strikeouts and moved him to 0-for-19 through the first five games of the season.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It also brought his strikeout total to 15 over 19 at-bats, which is remarkably the same number of strikeouts Tony Gwynn had in 585 at-bats during the 1995 season.<\/p>\n
Despite the struggles, Devers did appear to be in good spirits when he spoke with reporters after the loss.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve been feeling good. Feeling good today, I felt good at all the at-bats. Obviously I haven\u2019t been able to hit the ball, but I feel good. I feel like my at-bats are getting better and better,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Still, even as Devers tried to put on a brave face, the numbers have not been kind to the infielder.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The 15 strikeouts through five games are the most in MLB history through that timespan, with Devers surpassing Cubs outfielder Ian Happ\u2019s 14 strikeouts in 2018 to start the season.<\/p>\n
\u201cI never changed the way that I hit. I\u2019m still aggressive,\u201d Devers said. \u201cMy batting stance and everything like that, I\u2019ve always been like that. Maybe I\u2019m thinking too much at the plate what the pitcher might throw or not, but otherwise, I feel very good.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Devers\u2019 slump has garnered plenty of attention and reactions, which included former Red Sox pitcher Jonathan Papelbon.\u00a0<\/p>\n
During NESN\u2019s coverage of Sunday\u2019s loss, Papelbon suggested that Devers was \u201cout of shape\u201d and that \u201cmaybe we\u2019ve got to trim a little bit of fat.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Red Sox are off on Tuesday before continuing their series with the Orioles on Wednesday, which will be Devers\u2019 next chance to get a hit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
