Examining if Houston Astros crossed a line trolling Mariners

A STEP TOO FAR?

There was a lot of outrage - specifically from Seattle media - over a pair of tweets from the #Astros Twitter account after Houston completed its sweep of the Mariners on Sunday.

And this tweet:

Were they haymakers? Yes. Were they merited? Also yes. Yeah, Houston cheated back in the day. But if you keep poking the fan base by bringing that up, how do you think they'll clap back after completing a sweep?

Plus, you're a coward if you don't want the 'Stros to play the Yankees in the ALCS. And Dodgers fans? You never get to whine about 2017 again. Historic regular season, blah blah blah, and you can't even make it to the first round of the playoffs. You heard me right. The LCS is the ACTUAL first round of the playoffs. Houston 👏 has 👏 standards 👏.
