Hot O’s, Royals set up ALCS
Print Edition
NELSON Cruz sliced a two-run homer for his latest big postseason hit as the Baltimore Orioles swept aside Detroit’s Cy Young pitching award winners to hold off the Tigers 2-1 on Sunday and reach the American League Championship Series for the first time since 1997.
Bud Norris outpitched David Price in Game 3 of the AL Division Series. The Tigers scored in the ninth and put the tying run on second with no outs, but Orioles closer Zach Britton escaped the jam and lifted Buck Showalter into his first ALCS in 16 seasons as a big league manager.
Baltimore opens the ALCS on Friday at home against the Kansas City Royals, who beat the Los Angeles Angels 8-3 to complete a sweep of their AL Division Series.
