Fans who unfurled 'Trump 2020' banner at Baltimore Orioles game escorted out of ballpark
Four fans who unfurled a banner supporting President Trump’s reelection during the eighth inning of Thursday’s Orioles-Blue Jays game at Oriole Park at Camden Yards were ordered to remove the banner and escorted from the ballpark by Baltimore police and stadium officials.
Orioles policy prohibits displaying banners during a game, except between innings, and states that “banners are subject to confiscation if the content is commercial, political, and/or in bad taste according to the Orioles’ discretion.”
The banner was displayed for less than 10 minutes, according to the Baltimore Sun, which noted that some among the crowd of 9,716 chanted “Take it down!” before police and stadium officials told the fans to remove it.
Thursday’s incident came during the Orioles’ first home game since Trump took aim at Rep. Elijah E. Cummings (D-Md.) on Twitter last Saturday, when he called the African American lawmaker a “brutal bully” and claimed conditions in the Baltimore congressional district Cummings represents were “FAR WORSE” than those at the U.S.-Mexico border.
