Two fans of the Minnesota Twins decided to have a little fun at the Houston Astros‘ expense.

They decided to mock the Astros by bringing a trash can and wooden spoon; one fan banged on the trash can while saying “Hous-ton Aster-isks!”
Outside the Twins v Astros game right now:
“HOUS-TON ASTER-ISKS!!”

Of course, they’re referring to the infamous scandal the Astros became embroiled in, as players and coaches would reportedly bang on a trash can to tip off batters to the upcoming pitch after using an outfield camera to relay catcher signs to a television monitor in the dugout.
The Astros defeated the Twins in Game 1 of their Wild Card series by a 4-1 final.
