Houston Astros owner Jim Crane walked away from reporters during the MLB owners' meetings after telling them that he would answer questions "only about baseball," according to Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle and Jeff Passan of ESPN.

Crane walked into the hotel in Arlington, Texas and told reporters: "If you want to talk about baseball, I'll talk about baseball. What else do you want to talk about?" He added that he had no comment on any other issues before police officers escorted him away from the media scrum.
