Dodger Fan’s Creative Dr. Seuss Take on Astros Cheating Scandal

For most Dodgers fans this week, the more you think about the Astros and that fateful 2017 World Series, the more livid you get.

However, one small silver lining in this madness has been the art, memes, and graphics work put in by some creative folks online.



One of the more creative instances came from Twitter user Eephusblue who reimagined some Dr. Seuss covers with a topical twist.

As the fallout continues for the Astros, painful memories are continually rehashed for Dodgers fans, and even fans of other teams that feel for the boys in blue.

What’s better is the timing of Houston’s version of their annual FanFest — affectionately dubbed “BuzzFest” by some on the internet — which afforded Astros players the opportunity to face media for the first time since MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred announced his punishment for their cheating ways.

Thankfully for the Dodgers and its fans, spring training is less than a month away. Once pitchers and catchers report to Camelback Ranch in Arizona, things will truly start to get back to normal and it will once again be time for Dodger Baseball.

  1. ” How Hinch Stole the 2017 World Series.” I digress….

    Anyways, this is not going away anytime soon. And the Black Sox can now rest easy in their graves …100+ years later….the Astros have given them some reprieve by overshadowing the Black Sox’ historical shame. I love the “apologies” the Astros have given, thus far (sarcasm), ” The Commissioner came out with decision…no other thoughts/comments….” OR ” We will be back in the World Series again….” Hmmmm….. When I heard that one I thought,’ have they already started working on ways to implement new cheating techniques before Spring training?’
