BALTIMORE (AP) — The Baltimore Orioles were swept out of the playoffs in their only series for a second consecutive year. They haven’t won a postseason game in a decade, since advancing to the 2014 AL Championship Series, where they were swept by Kansas City. The latest sweep, which came at home — also at the hands of the Royals — comes a year after Baltimore lost to the eventual World Series champion Texas Rangers. The Orioles scored just one run over two games in the AL Wild Card Series and went 1 for 13 with runners in scoring position. Plenty of questions will follow about the team’s future.
