In what could be a precursor to the Orioles welcoming fans back to Camden Yards in Baltimore after it was empty for the 2020 season, the team announced Friday that fans would be welcome in a limited capacity to their spring training games at Ed Smith Stadium in Sarasota, Florida.
The team will use pod seating to ensure at least six feet of distance between groups of fans and will have 1,833 tickets available for the games, representing 25-percent capacity.
In a statement, senior vice president for community development and communications Jennifer Grondahl said the Orioles are “thrilled to safely welcome fans back to the ballpark to join us at Ed Smith Stadium this spring.
