Andy Pages’ three-run homer lifts the Dodgers to a 5-4 victory over the Giants, but San Francisco had already made headlines with a blockbuster trade for the Red Sox slugger prior to the series

Melvin was already without long reliever Spencer Bivens, who threw a season-high 3 1/3 innings in Saturday’s 11-5 loss. Right-hander Tristan Beck, another multi-inning reliever, contributed two innings before backup catcher Logan Porter pitched the eighth.

And it didn’t end there. After first baseman Triston Casas was lost for the season after tearing his patellar tendon, the Red Sox asked Devers if he’d be willing to play first base. Having already moved once, he was less than happy about that request and ultimately told the Red Sox no.
