The Houston Astros are finally getting booed for their cheating scandal, thanks to Oakland A's fans

Oakland Athletics fans chant "cheaters" to the Houston Astros during their Opening Day game at RingCentral Coliseum on April 01, 2021 in Oakland.

The Oakland A's were demolished on Opening Day, falling to the Houston Astros 8-1. The Houston Chronicle had a little fun with their gamer headline afterwards, writing, "A's get standing ovation for hitting two Astros batters, still lose."

Factually accurate. The A's stunk, the Astros looked impressive and the 12,000-person crowd really only got to celebrate when Houston batters were plunked.

And yet! Let us not diminish those wondrous moments, both pre-game and during it, when onlookers were finally able to boo the 'Stros for cheating.
