Red Sox tie team record

CLEVELAND — Sam Travis and Tzu-Wei Lin hit their first major league home runs and the Boston Red Sox tied a team record more than a century old with their 105th win, beating the Cleveland Indians 7- 5 Friday night.

The AL East champion Red Sox ( 105-49), playing without several of their regulars, matched the club mark set in 1912.

Trevor Bauer took a step toward being in Cleveland’s postseason rotation, pitching 1 1⁄ 3 scoreless innings in his first appearance since breaking his right leg on Aug. 11. He was 12- 6 with a 2.22 ERA when was struck on the lower leg by a line drive hit by Jose Abreu of the Chicago White Sox.

Boston ace Chris Sale, being eased back into the rotation after recent shoulder trouble, struck out seven in 3 1⁄ innings. He allowed 3 two runs in his third start back from the disabled list.
