KANSAS CITY - It's true: The sun is out and shining for Game 3 of the American League Championship Series! After the postponement due to rain yesterday, we - Lindsay and Olivia - are back with you for Game 3 of the ALCS, which starts at 8 p.m. Eastern time. We're about ready to head to the ballpark on this beautiful but windy afternoon. If you can't make it out to Kauffman Stadium, no worries! We're bringing the ballpark to you through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat (masnOrioles). So be sure to follow along for your behind-the-scenes looks of Game 3.

Sunny today in KC but very, very windy. Good luck with those popups tonight #orioles #royals #ALCS pic.twitter.com/G4VirOy9KE

11:05 p.m. - The Royals look unstoppable right now. They're now 7-0 in the postseason after defeating the Orioles tonight by a final score of 2-1. The Royals are now up 3-0 in the ALCS, and the O's need to win tomorrow to survive and keep their season alive. Sleep fast, Orioles fans.

Adam Jones: "We just have to win. We're down 3-0. It's no if, ands or buts. It's do, at this point. We don't have any excuses."
