Your 2018 Boston Red Sox have equaled the all-time franchise record for wins in a season with their 105th last night—
a 7-5 victory over Tito's Tribe. The milestone gives
The Carmine Hose a good opportunity to break that 1912 mark—with eight games left in the season. Last night, two Sox players got their first career MLB home runs—
Sam Travis and
Tzu-Wei Lin. The line-up—outside of
J.D. Martinez—was filled with back-benchers. Yet, despite falling behind, this resilient squad clawed their way back to a tie and then a lead with four runs in the seventh inning. It was Travis and Lin in the middle of that rally as well—in addition to
Rafael Devers (who went 2-5 with 2 RBIs and a run scored).
Chris Sale went 3.2 innings, giving up two earned runs—but most importantly felt fine afterward. A total of nine pitchers toiled for Boston—with
Matt Barnes picking up the win and
Craig Kimbrel notching his 42nd save.
