MLB: Lone Fan at Angel Stadium Welcomes Cheating Astros to Anaheim
You hate the Astros, I hate the Astros… everyone hates the Astros, save for maybe the “eVerYonE chEatS” brand of Houstonians and, of course, Rob Manfred. Sadly, COVID-19 took away our opportunity to proudly boo the cheaters in person.
However, one fan — a Yankees fan of all people — visited the parking lot at Angel Stadium to send a message.

Fox Sports West reporter Alex Curry shared the video featuring the Yankee fan with his “Trashtros” sign and trash can lid. A true patriot for baseball fans in 2020.
Anaheim is hosting Houston for a 3 game set through the weekend. While the Angels lost game one of the series, thankfully unfortunately, another Astro batter got plunked by a pitch.
Alt*ve getting plunked with a "KNOW THE SIGNS" sign behind him is elite level trolling. pic.twitter.com/YzlB3tG9nR

The irony of the moment is the advertisement behind Jose Altuve prominently displaying “know the signs.” Elite move by the Angels.
Little Altuve was the second batter to get hit on Friday night after Alex Bregman wore a pitch earlier in the game. All told, five Houston batters have been drilled this season, none of them by Joe Kelly or the Dodgers mind you.
The Angels lost the game, but they won our gratitude.
PODCAST: Free Joe Kelly, Fire Rob Manfred, Trashing the Astros
Great article, thank you! Altuve might have to increase his health insurance coverage!
Great job angels.Hope every team throws at Astros and breaks some hands or wrists.
This could turn into Dodgers/Giants mis-haps.
One fan, Yankee fan at that. there should have been more no matter what kind of fan you are. he should have posted that he wanted many others to join him. There doesn’t have to be any threats on their lives, just boo them, make it known that we’re all watching. And Man/fred, I can’t wait till he’s out of that office, he stinks at it.
