Fans enter Oriole Park at Camden Yards on opening day before the game between the Baltimore Orioles and the Los Angeles Angels on March 28, 2024 in Baltimore, Md.
Two days after the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed, the Baltimore Orioles honored victims of the tragedy, their families and first responders.
The club held a moment of silence before their Opening Day game against the Los Angeles Angels on Thursday afternoon before the national anthem.
This moment was another show of unity in the city after the bridge collapsed on Tuesday.

The national anthem was then performed by the Morgan State University choir as a replica flag of the one that flew over Fort McHenry when Francis Scott Key wrote the Star Spangled Banner dropped in the outfield.
Two people were rescued from the collapse and officials said six others were presumed dead. The bridge was hit by a cargo ship, though many lives were likely saved because the ship's operator issued a mayday call moments before the crash.
The National Transportation Safety Board has begun its investigation into what happened on board the ship, while families of those missing are still waiting for answers.
