Short answer

Oriole Park allows one approved bag per person: a clear bag up to 12 by 6 by 12 inches, a one-gallon freezer bag, a clutch or fanny pack up to 5 by 7 inches, or a medical or diaper bag. Food and one sealed 20 ounce drink go inside it. Lenses over 7 inches are banned, and so is re-entry.
