Royals sweep Orioles to advance to ALDS

For the second-straight day, the Royals and Orioles battled in a pitcher’s duel. Fortunately for Kansas City, it was the same outcome — putting the Royals in the ALDS for the first time since 2015.

The offense got off to a much better start on Wednesday afternoon. After Michael Massey led off the game with a double, Vinnie Pasquantino drove him in on an RBI-single to right field.

With that slim lead, Seth Lugo began to settle in.
