The Los Angeles Angels broke a 106-game streak on Monday night with a walk-off victory against the St. Louis Cardinals. The Angels’ fans played a significant role in the win with their ‘tarps off’ cheer, where hundreds of fans waved their shirts and cheered for their team.
The ‘Tarps Off’ Movement
The ‘tarps off’ movement has become a phenomenon this season, with fans taking off their shirts and waving them in a specific section of the field. The movement has also been used as a form of protest, with fans chanting ‘sell the team’ due to the team’s poor performance and the owner’s decision-making.
The Angels’ win was a significant one, as they were down 2-1 in the top of the eighth inning. However, the team’s fans continued to cheer, and their energy seemed to propel the team to a comeback victory. The Cardinals’ pitcher was affected by the crowd’s energy, and he plunked Jo Adell, allowing Zach Neto to score the winning run.
