how stupid is MLB for playing todays game in an empty stadium in Baltimore?????

[scottcarter]

WTF? Has to be one of the dumbest decisions ever made in all of sports. I know they have done it in soccer but that was usually because the fans were beating the shit out of each other. So they penalized the fans along with the club. Cancel it, move it elsewhere or reschedule it, but playing it and not allowing people inside is dumb.

This is a day game in Baltimore. I am sure the hot dog sellers and beer sellers are happy about this. How can the players make it there if the fans can't?

Am I way off base here? (pun intended)

Baseball doesn't even start until September 1st. Then the NFL takes over.

The first thing I thought of is will this have any effect on the total. Maybe the teams will play looser? Still thinking about it.

This is a historic game that will definately find it's way into trivia games later.

This reminds me of when the Bad News Bears go to Japan and some kind of skirmish breaks out
and at the end they end up playing the Japanese team on an empty playground.

Speaking of baseball movies I watched Bull Durham last night. It's been years and I forgot how funny of a movie it is. The pitcher is Tim Robbins from Shawshank and his pitches are hilarious. His head rolls back and his eyes are all over the place during his windup. Lmao. Only likes to throw heaters. Fucking funny.
