The Baltimore Orioles and Chicago White Sox played the first game in major league history that was not open to the public on Wednesday. Cheering, screaming and yelling were strangely absent on a sunny spring afternoon, but the game went on in an eerily quiet Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
Houston 7, San Diego 2
Houston Astros left-hander Dallas Keuchel outpitched San Diego Padres right-hander Andrew Cashner and left fielder Colby Rasmus broke a 1-1 tie with a two-run homer in the fourth inning as Houston defeated the Padres 7-2 on Wednesday to complete a three-game sweep at Petco Park.
