Thousands of fans were temporarily trapped inside Camden Yards Saturday night as “ongoing public safety issues” prevented fans from leaving the ballpark. Demonstrators took the streets Saturday to protest the death of Freddie Gray, but after hours of peace the protest turned destructive just outside Camden Yards as the Orioles played the Red Sox. The Orioles’ public address announcer informed fans in the ninth inning that no one could leave the stadium, but the restriction was eventually lifted in extra innings (the Orioles prevailed 5-4).

According to the Baltimore Sun, some members of the Orioles considered sleeping in the clubhouse to avoid leaving the stadium. Chris Davis said after the game that he hopes the city can “move forward.”

“We understand what’s going on and we understand people are upset, and rightfully so. But I think there’s a constructive way to protest and there’s a destructive way to protest. I think for us, I think we’d rather see people get their point across without damaging anything or put anybody’s lives in jeopardy. I hope this blows over and we can get past it and move forward, because this is too good of a city for this to happen.”

Adam Jones asked protesters to stay safe and to not cause damage to the city.
