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.
After the Cardinals conclude their suspended game with the Orioles from Tuesday night, St. Louis pitcher Kyle Gibson will face his former Baltimore teammates Wednesday afternoon to wrap up a three-game series. Persistent thunderstorms in St. Louis forced the stoppage of Tuesday's game at Busch Stadium with the score tied 1-1 in the sixth inning. Play will resume with the Cardinals batting in the bottom of that frame. The Cardinals won the series opener Monday for their sixth victory in eight games.
Rhys Hoskins hit a go-ahead three-run home run in the seventh inning and the Milwaukee Brewers beat St. Louis 5-3 on Saturday night, sending the Cardinals to their seventh straight loss.
