BALTIMORE Adam Jones was thinking much more about the residents of his city while its under a state of emergency than about the feeling of playing in an empty ballpark.
Chase Claypool T Shirts People are hurting, the Orioles centerfielder said Wednesday morning, hours before he and his team took the field at Camden Yards, which was closed to the public in light of the week of unrest in Baltimore. As one of the older guys in the community, we owe it to the youth to continue to strengthen them, to educate them, to be by their sides. They dont need more antagonizing, they need a shoulder to cry on, and this city can be that for those kids.
Adam Jones: "It's not an easy time right now for anybody. It doesn't matter what race you are."

Your frustration is warranted, understood, he continued. Your actions arent acceptable, but I know where they come from.
Because of his boyhood growing up in San Diego, Jones said he can relate to the anger felt by those who live in the poorest parts of Baltimore, where the violence Terrell Edmunds Jerseys broke out Monday night, and where Freddie Gray died in police custody after an incident two weeks ago.
They need hugs, they need love, he said.
But, he added, baseball would be as helpful now, and he would have been fine with the game being open to fans at a time like this.
I understand the security i sue in the city, Jones said, adding, To give three hours of distraction from Chaz Green Jerseys what is going on, thats what sports is, and thats why Baltimore needs.
Deciding to play the game and postpone the other games, thats up to the commi sioner, he said, but sports brings people together.
Manager Buck Showalter deflected nearly every question about the unusual circumstances of the game, noting that Kenny Pickett T Shirts there are much more important i sues at stake. Youre trying to prioritize whats important, and this wasnt one of them, he said.
Like everybody else in Baltimore and around the country, Showalter watched the riots with a sick feeling.
I tell you what, its sad, on a lot of fronts, he said. You ask how we got to this point. I just want to see this city some things you want to get back to what it was, but there are things you don't want to get back to what it was.
