Angels fans troll Astros by tossing trash cans onto field

Originally posted on Larry Brown Sports  |  By Larry Brown  |  Last updated 4/6/21

The shortened, fan-less season last year spared the Houston Astros from national ridicule at ballparks, but Angels fans are trying to make up for things this year.

The Angels faced the Astros on Monday and came back to win 7-6. During the game, Angels fans trolled the Astros with trash cans.

At first it started with a real one in right field:

Then someone threw an inflatable trash can on the field.

And then fans threw a real trash can onto the field.

The Astros were confirmed to have cheated in the 2017 season by banging a trash can to communicate pitch types during at-bats. You can see here what the setup looked like.

The Angels fans’ efforts weren’t too far off from what the Astros’ setup actually looked like.
