BALTIMORE -- The Baltimore Orioles are one game away from playoff elimination, but they can perhaps take solace in one of the most impressive aspects of their 101-win season: They weren't swept in a series all season. Indeed, they haven't been swept in a series since catcher Adley Rutschman was called up in late May of 2022.
"It's a pretty significant feat to go that long without it happening," outfielder Austin Hays said following Sunday's 11-8 loss to the Texas Rangers in Game 2 of the American League Division Series.
