Houston Astros Spoof Crappy Viral Ad for Missouri Mall

Haha!

This is one of the more inspired things done by the Houston Astros in recent memory.

Okay, so maybe the George Springer promotion to the majors might top this...

But follow along.

Check out the Astros spoofing a Viral Video done produced originally for the East Hills Mall in St. Joseph's, Missouri.

The original, which we'll post here, features some god-awful singing...and dancing...sort of.



Now check out the Astros version--and see who's is better:

George Springer Hit The Ball A Long Way

((HT: MLB.com/CSN Houston))

David Price was throwing pitch 50 of the night to the Astros Rookie of The Year candidate, George Springer, and he absolutely UNLOADED on it...

Evidence below...


Astros beat writer Brian McTaggart, via his Twitter, has the details on the bomb:

Springer's HR hit off the "d-ring" catwalk. It's 23rd time in ballpark history a ball hit off "d-ring." First time since May 30, 2011.

That's really far...
