The Baltimore Orioles take on the Chicago White Sox in the first inning at an empty Oriole Park at Camden Yards on Wednesday, April 29. The baseball game was played in a stadium closed to the public after unrest in Baltimore following the death of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old man who died after suffering a severe spinal injury in police custody.

Ticket windows are closed before the game at Camden Yards. For the first time in Major League Baseball, fans were shut out of a game.
