Ohio Church Trolls Astros With Excellent Sign
By Michael Luciano
The Houston Astros are getting assaulted with an avalanche of insults and threatening statements from every corner of the baseball universe.
Even local churches in the middle of Ohio are getting their little wisecracks in. Green Valley United Methodist Church in Akron changed their sign out in front so that they could get in their clever little dig.

Not only have the Astros pissed off fans, contemporaries, and the league as a whole, but they have somehow managed to get the big guy upstairs upset.
Houston's rough last few weeks will only continue to get worse, as Rob Manfred had to create new penalties to prevent opposing pitchers from taking the law into their own hands and beaning them with pitches.
That, plus the "buzzer" rumor that no one has confirmed did or did not exist makes for another nauseating combination of negative backlash the Astros and their fans just have to swallow.
Jose Altuve made himself available in the clubhouse after the press conference. He was asked about the buzzers and immediately referred to the league’s investigation not finding anything instead of flat out saying they didn’t exist. The Astros used buzzers. No doubt in my mind.

The Astros are by no means even close to being out of the woods yet, as we still haven't found out all of the dirt that this scandal has created. When Middle America churches deem it fit to take a shot at you, you know you have really messed up.
