New York Yankees minor league affiliate trolls Houston Astros

The New York Yankees NY-Penn League affiliate from Staten Island trolls the Astros after league decides on a sign-stealing penalty.

This week, the Houston Astros learned their fate for the alleged sign-stealing they had taken part in during their World Series-winning 2017 season along with the 2018 season. The MLB ultimately suspended manager A.J. Hinch and general manager Jeff Luhnow for one year. Shortly after the league decided on a punishment, Astros owner Jim Crane relieved them of their duties completely.

Essentially, the team would steal signs from opposing catchers when their team was up to bat via a centerfield camera.
