The Boston Red Sox beat the Tampa Bay Rays 7-2 on Tuesday night to become the first Major League club to clinch a playoff berth in 2018.
\"Any time you make the playoffs and give yourself a chance to be that last team, it\'s a pretty special thing,\" Brock Holt said. \"We\'re excited by that, but we\'ve got more work to do.\"
The Red Sox have the best record in baseball at 99-46. It will be the third-straight postseason appearance for the team.
\"We\'re in great position to win the division and then to accomplish other things,\" Alex Cora said. \"As I told the group, I\'m very proud of them.\"
