The banner commemorating the Astros’ 2017 World Series “victory’ has gone missing from the plaza outside Minute Maid Park in Houston.
The banner had been mounted to a flagpole in the plaza but was noticed missing and appears to have been pried from the pole. According to KHOU 11, the team is “looking into the matter.”The Astros were declared the winner of the 2017 series against the Los Angeles Dodgers, a feat they were predicted to accomplish three years prior in a now-infamouscover story.
A subsequent MLB investigation revealed that the Astros had indeed run a sign-stealing system utilizing a centerfield camera to steal signs and the coded banging of a garbage can to warn hitters of the type of pitch that was on the way. The scheme was used not just during the regular season but through the World Series.
The Astros manger, general manager, and several other key management figures were fired or penalized for their role in the scandal. However, even though the investigation revealed that it had been a player-run cheating scheme, no players from the 2017 roster were disciplined.
