"Fuck Altuve": Yankee fans vulgar chant since 2017, shaming themselves, the team, the city, ... it's mob rule.

The Houston Astros just played four games against the Yankees in the Stadium. Thousands of Yankee fans continued their five year harassment of Houston second baseman Jose Altuve. Yankee fans chant "Fuck Altuve" repeatedly throughout the games, especially when Altuve bats. He has become the target of immature losers who hold him most responsible for Houston engaging in stealing the signs of the opposing catcher to the opposing pitcher and breaking the rules in how that information was transmitted to Houston batters, which provided a competitive advantage.

Houston won the 2017 World Series against the Dodgers, defeating the Yankees in the American League championship series four games to three. Yankee fans choose to ignore the fact that in the four games in Houston the Yankees scored only three runs: 1, 1, 1, 0. Houston stole the signs only at home. Yankee fans also ignore that among 2017 batters, Altuve was in the middle of the pack at home but number one on the road. The mob is never rational.

The foul language reverberates off the facade on the roof of Yankee Stadium. No fan present could avoid hearing it, including kids who must be asking their parents what is being said. How do the parents explain that they are exposing their kids to the mob and doing nothing because they are afraid of the mob.

No one criticises much less condemns. Not Yankee announcer Michael Kay. Not Yankee manager Aaron Boone. Not Yankee general manager Brian Cashman. Not Yankee executive Randy Levine. Not Yankee team owners and Steinbrenner kids, led by Hal and his two older sisters.

Not MLB commissioner Rob Manfred. What could Manfred and Hal Steinbrenner be thinking? Are they such cowards?

Yesterday's fourth and final game:

Sunday, June 26, 2022

Start Time: 1:35 p.m. Local

Attendance: 44,028

Venue: Yankee Stadium III

Game Duration: 3:45

Day Game, on grass

Yankees 6, Houston 3 in 10 innings

HR: Jose Altuve (15, off Nestor Cortes, 1st inn, 0 on, 0 outs to Deep LF).

HR: Aaron Judge (28, off Seth Martinez, 10th inn, 2 on, 2 outs to Deep LF-CF).

Jose Altuve was the first batter in the game and he homered. Good for him.

Aaron Judge was the last batter in the game. Judge hit the game winning home run. But as team leader, Judge has been silent on his fans chanting "Fuck Altuve". His silence is deafening.

I'm a Yankee fan. I'm ashamed and embarrassed about the mob taking over Yankee Stadium.
