the comfort of our fans and public safety are paramount concerns for the orioles. reporter: fans watched and cheered through the gates. shut out of the stadium. as a police helicopter circled. team with major league baseball made the call after days of civil unrest in baltimore. i think that, you know the people that it wasn t the right thing to do but they made it very clear and we need change here and hopefully that will happen. reporter: tensions ran high this weekend after a west baltimore man, freddie gray died in police custody. we re going to take north avenue and we ain t giving it back. reporter: outside the ballpark on saturday protesters clashing with police. don t shoot! the chant is hands up don t shoot, which we heard starting in ferguson missouri. reporter: that night fans held in the stadium. officials concerned about public safety. the next two games were canceled as riots raged in the city. some wondered if today s game
should be played at all. other major league games have been moved because of public unrest. in 1992 in los angeles after the rodney king verdict and in 1967 in detroit because of rioting. but there never has been a game quite like this. when the ball players took the field at camden yards this afternoon, they came out to this unprecedented sight no one in the stands. every day it s normal to hear the national anthem or people screaming o during the national anthem. there s nothing. it s not easy you know. this whole process is not easy, man. we need this game to be played but we need the city to be healed first. reporter: the o s were supposed to play the tampa bay rays here this weekend. instead, they ll play as the home team down in florida. it means die hard fans will have to wait a little longer to come to a home game. and so will the vendors, concession stand workers, and everyone else around baltimore who depend on the orioles to make a living.
