For the first time in more than two years, the Orioles got swept

It was the first series sweep this season for the Cardinals, who have won eight of their last 10 games. The Orioles had gone 106 consecutive regular-season series without being swept. Baltimore had just eclipsed the 1903-05 New York Giants for the third-longest streak in MLB history. John Means allowed one hit in three innings with two walks and a strikeout for Baltimore.
