SAN FRANCISCO (AP) \u2014 San Francisco’s Rafael Devers’ season is over and he may have surgery for a core muscle injury.<\/p>\n

The Giants placed the first baseman\/designated hitter and designated hitter on the 60-day injured list Sunday, ending his season.<\/p>\n

Devers, who leads the team with 37 homers and 98 RBIs, is to meet Monday in Philadelphia with Dr. William Meyers. If a procedure is recommended, Devers would have the operation on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

San Francisco said Devers played with the injury for much of this season.<\/p>\n

Devers homered in his last two games and had eight home runs with 20 RBIs in his final 11 games.<\/p>\n

In the third season of a $313.5 million, 10-year contract<\/a>, Devers was acquired from Boston in June 2025<\/a>. He was batting .207 with two homers through April but has raised his average to .258.<\/p>\n

Devers has a .274 and 272 home runs in 10 major league seasons.<\/p>\n

San Francisco selected the contract of outfielder Scott Bandura from Triple-A Sacramento.<\/p>\n
