Giants make exciting Rafael Devers announcement after blockbuster trade with Red Sox image

San Francisco already loves Rafael Devers.

He's a superstar, and he's their superstar, and the fact that he arrived via a shocking blockbuster trade from the Boston Red Sox after plenty of animosity there, that hasn't hurt either.

And now, if you're a Giants fan and a Devers supporter, there's one game you definitely need to attend at Oracle Park.

The Giants announced that their Sept. 27 home game will feature a Rafael Devers T-shirt giveaway. A remarkable 40,000 shirts will be handed out as fans arrive.

That'll be a 1:05 p.m. local time matchup against the Colorado Rockies on a Sunday, a great day for a shirt and a ballgame.

Devers has started to acclimate well to San Francisco.

He hit his first two home runs recently. The first was a laser shot the other way, and the second was a crushed bomb that traveled nearly 440 feet.

He's 9-for-35 overall (.257) with a quick five walks, as well.

Devers has only been the DH so far, although he's expected to get time at first base eventually.

The Giants fans have taken to chanting "Raffy" when he comes to the plate.

Yeah, this might work out just fine.
