I was thinking this game would set the record for lowest attendance, but MLB attendance is based on tickets sold, not how many people show up. If I had a ticket for the game, I'd keep it for the historic value.

I also believe you will see people in the seats, family of the players, scouts and some front office types.

It may be a first, but it won't be a far cry from some Senators games in RFK that I attended in my youth.

Sorry Jeff, sad, but it is the teenage kids destroying the city.

Default Make a wish

It would be the perfect opportunity for a make a wish for children in need, I iust see it as an opportunity to for the game of baseball to help the young kids, not the teenagers who are causing the problems.

I think you're right. However, it is a volatile situation that is very very close to the ballpark. Additionally, all Maryland schools have suspended field trips into Baltimore for the next couple of weeks.
