Bomb technicians have already arrived at Dodger Stadium, but noone has yet found any bombs. Part of the security teams are searching, others are assisting in the orderly evacuation. Eric Carter's team has done a good job maintaining order. If not for them, more people might be in danger from panic than from bombs.
.
As president Gardner observes the evacuation on tv he is told the commisionar of baseball is calling him, Gardner takes the call.
.
Commisionar: Mr president, I understand why you ordered the evacuation. But if CTU cannot find any bombs, I want to proceed with the game.
Gardner: That could put thousands of lives in danger.
Commisionar: Has it occured to you that there are no bombs, that the terrorists were trying to cause panic and kill americans in that way?
Gardner: That seems unlikely. We were informed by a woman who escaped, a man gave his life to help warn us. And your theory wouldn't have anything to do with the fear your business would lose money by delaying.
Commisionar: After Pearl Harbor was attacked president Franklin Roosevelt advised commisionar Landis to resume baseball. He said americans would have to work longer and harder than ever before for the forseeable future, it was more important than ever to give the people some fun and entertainment.
Gardner: And after 9/11 baseball was delayed for six days. I have no intention of postpoing the World Series indefinitely. I just want to keep these people safe.
