The Baltimore Orioles' streak of not getting swept ended at the worst possible time.A feel-good regular season, which saw the Orioles win 101 games and clinch a playoff spot for the first time since 2016, didn't translate to a lengthy postseason. The Texas Rangers completed a three-game sweep of Baltimore on Tuesday night, winning 7-1 in Game 3 of the American League Division Series .
The 104-win Braves are tied 1-1 in an NLDS series with the Philadelphia Phillies after losing to Philly in this round last year. The 100-win Dodgers trail the Arizona Diamondbacks 2-0 in the other NLDS series.Baltimore joined the 2019 Minnesota Twins by becoming the second 100-win team in the last 23 years to be swept in their first playoff series. The Orioles are the 18th team since 2000 to win 100 or more games but fail to advance a single round in the playoffs.
