Rafael Devers lived up to the billing on his bobblehead night. Devers homered twice to power the Giants’ 5-0 win over the Braves at Oracle Park on Saturday, capping an eventful week for the three-time All-Star slugger. The veteran first baseman drew scrutiny when he tried to wave off a pinch-runner in the ninth inning of the Giants’ series finale at Miami on June 21, but he found himself back in the spotlight for more encouraging reasons on Saturday. “To be honest with you, it’s impressive based off the storyline you give, but he’s the same guy,” manager Tony Vitello said. “I think, more or less, what he showed tonight is what he’s capable of doing. I think, to me, the only thing that’s been hard for him, and all of us, is we all just want to do a little bit better. I think part of that is knowing that we can be better as a group, each of us individually. Tonight, we really showed what we can do when we show up together as a team.” Devers’ 22nd career multihomer game backed yet another dominant start from San Francisco ace Logan Webb, who allowed only one hit -- a second-inning double to former Giant Mauricio Dubón -- over seven scoreless innings to lower his ERA to 3.09 on the season. Webb was feeling a bit under the weather, but he mostly cruised through his 92-pitch outing and retired 16 in a row after issuing a two-out walk to another ex-teammate, Mike Yastrzemski, in the top of the second.
