Throughout Spring Training, the Houston Astros have been targeted by teams and fans alike for their cheating streak that ended in a World Series title in 2017. Fans have taunted the players, opposing pitchers have hit Astros batters, and sportscasters have taken turns burning Houston. However, none of the trolls have been as cute as a young Mets fan at the game on Sunday, who was running around with a sign, just trying to help out.

The fan hilariously ran around holding a sign up that said the word "fastball" as a way to make fun of the Astros, who, as we all know, implemented a system to let their batters know what pitch was being thrown at all times.

The 'Stros have no doubt been getting used to all the hate their squad has been receiving, but this is something they probably have not seen before.

As it turns out, the Astros ended up losing the game against the Mets, so maybe the kid's tactic actually worked.

Honestly, the troll probably did not even affect the Astros. But either way, that was for sure the most adorable troll so far.
