The Cleveland Guardians seek their sixth consecutive victory when they visit the Baltimore Orioles on Monday for the opener of their three-game series. Cleveland (49-26), which posted a season-high nine-game winning streak from May 17-26, edged Toronto 6-5 on Sunday to complete a series sweep and extend its current run to five games.
