The club postponed Monday's game roughly 40 minutes before the scheduled start time with about 1,000 fans inside Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Reports say nearly 2,000 National Guard and police are staged in the Camden Yards lots, but for fan safety, there will be no baseball in Baltimore on Tuesday.
