BOSTON -- For the Red Sox, the regular season has been an historic joyride in which the proud franchise has climbed to heights never seen before.
Backed by rookie manager Alex Cora, the Sox broke the team record with 108 wins. Mookie Betts had one of the finest all-around seasons for a Boston player and won the batting title. J.D. Martinez has been a hitting machine, belting 43 homers and driving in 130 runs. Chris Sale has been a beast when healthy. David Price is back to being a top starter.
