Carlos Carrasco wasn’t going to let a minor illness slow down the Cleveland Indians. Pitching with a cold, Carrasco held the Tigers to one run in seven innings as the Indians won, 3-2, in Detroit on Friday in the first game of a day-night doubleheader.

Cleveland finished off the sweep with a 10-0 victory in the nightcap, its ninth win in a row.

‘‘I just had to go out there and do my job,’’ Carrasco said. ‘‘We won, and that’s the important part.’’

Detroit was playing for the first time since sending Justin Verlander to the Astros and Justin Upton to the Angels at the waiver trade deadline.

With the score tied at 2, Jay Bruce hit a pinch-hit triple off Shane Greene (3-3) with one out in the ninth. Francisco Lindor hit an RBI single through the drawn-in infield, but Greene retired the next two batters.

‘‘I had six triples in the first half of last season, then went dry,’’ Bruce said. ‘‘They didn’t pick the ball up pretty quickly, and I just kept going.’’

Bruce wasn’t surprised that Lindor followed with a clutch hit.

‘‘He can change a game in so many ways, offensively and defensively,’’ he said.

Indians manager Terry Francona used 19 players in the game, including 15 hitters.

‘‘It is always a little adjustment on the first day of September, because you are used to having three or four guys on the bench,’’ he said. ‘‘I looked down the dugout in the ninth and had some good hitters.’’

Cody Allen (2-6) allowed the tying run in the eighth, and the Tigers loaded the bases with two out in the ninth. Joe Smith came out of the bullpen and got Miguel Cabrera to line out to short for his first save of the year.

‘‘Miggy hit that right on the screws, but right at Lindor,’’ Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said.

Tigers starter Matt Boyd allowed one run on five hits in five innings.

Cleveland took the lead with three one-out singles in the fifth. Brandon Guyer was ruled safe on an infield hit after a replay review, moved to second on Yan Gomes’s base hit and scored on a hit by Giovanny Urshela. Boyd walked Lindor to load the bases, but struck out Austin Jackson and retired Jose Ramirez to end the inning.

Detroit, though, came back in the bottom of the inning. With two out, James McCann and JaCoby Jones singled before Jose Iglesias tied the score with an RBI double.

Edwin Encarnacion led off the sixth with a homer off Drew VerHagen, his 32nd of the season, to give the Indians a 2-1 lead.

Cubs 2, Braves 0 — John Lackey pitched seven crisp innings, Javier Baez’s daring baserunning paid off again, and host Chicago beat Atlanta for its fifth straight win.

Lackey (11-10) allowed three hits, struck out five, and walked none while improving to 6-1 with a 3.83 ERA in nine starts since the All-Star break. The 38-year-old righthander retired his last 16 batters after a second-inning single by Dansby Swanson.

Anthony Rizzo added two more hits as NL Central-leading Chicago won for the 11th time in its last 14 games. The big first baseman hit .355 with seven homers and 30 RBIs in August, powering the Cubs to a 17-12 record and a major league-best 191 runs for the month.

Atlanta lost for the fifth time in seven games, wasting a solid start by Mike Foltynewicz (10-11). The righthander allowed two runs and five hits in 6⅓ innings in his fifth consecutive loss.

The Cubs grabbed the lead for good on another exciting trip around the bases for Baez. He reached on a leadoff walk in the third and advanced on Lackey’s sacrifice. After Ben Zobrist flied out to center, Kyle Schwarber hit a dribbler up the third-base line. Foltynewicz slid to get to the ball and made a strong throw to first, but Schwarber beat it out for an infield hit.

Running all the way, Baez tried for home and slid in safely ahead of catcher Kurt Suzuki’s tag attempt. Baez stole home in Wednesday night’s 17-3 victory over Pittsburgh, and he also made a perfect slide when he scored the winning run in a 6-5 victory against Toronto on Aug. 20.

Rizzo doubled and scored on Ian Happ’s single in the fourth, and that was more than enough for Lackey and three relievers. Pedro Strop and Brian Duensing worked the eighth before Wade Davis finished the four-hitter for his 28th save in 28 chances.

Phillies 2, Marlins 1 — Philadelphia was shut out for seven innings by major league newcomer Dillon Peters but rallied for two runs in the ninth and extended host Miami’s losing streak to five games.

Major league home run leader Giancarlo Stanton went 0 for 2 with two walks and is 1 for 17 this week. The only hit was his 51st home run on Tuesday.

Miami’s Brad Ziegler (1-3) took a 1-0 lead and a 13-inning scoreless streak into the ninth, but Maikel Franco hit his first pitch for a double and advanced on a groundout. Pedro Florimon walked, Jorge Alfaro tied the game with an RBI single, and Andres Blanco’s groundout scored another run.
