BASEBALL FANS!

Oriole Stadium
Balitmore, MD
DID They HEAR any CRICKETS?....
This is a starting to be very interesting Season of professional baseball. That's an interest that didn't fill the stadium for thousands of empty seats when only a few newspaper and reporters, and game officials attended the Balitmore Orioles vs. Chicago Red Sox game. With the quiet game you could hear crickets chirping, or as one reporter describe it a pin drop, as the baseball cracked at the batter's hand. No fans were allowed to attend the closed game due to the recent riots in Baltimore following the protests of Freddie Gray's death. Reporters said it was an eerie feeling to see all the stands seats empty. Despite of the protest's curfew, the game went on. Still a few devoted fans despite of the curfew showed up just to see if they could get a glimpse, or even hear something. The victor of that game was Balitmore beating Chicago with a score of 8 to 2.
What was the point?! They should gave canceled...

4 real. I didn't understand having the game without the fans, they should of allowed the fans to attend, or like you so logically said cancelled the game. ?????
