White Sox Vs. Orioles @ Empty Camden Yards

The teams are playing at an empty stadium because of the Baltimore riots. Would be too weird to watch a silent baseball game, no crowds, no noise from vendors walking the rows.

But one skipper is going to make the best of the situation: "Our goal is to take the crowd out of the game early."

Looks like the Orioles do better in quiet games, they lead the White Sox 5-0.

That had to be a very surreal experience for everyone inside the park. I love going to the ball park to watch a game and take in the sights and sounds (and junk food and beer) but, I'm not sure I would have gone to the park Baltimore today even if I have the best seats in the house. I half wonder why the game wasn't rescheduled for a later date but I guess the show must go on...

If a player hits a homerun in an empty stadium and there is no fan to hear it, did it really happen?

There is no one that knows in Mudville that the mighty Kasey has struck out.
