"Family Guy" took aim at the Houston Astros and their illegal sign-stealing scandal on Sunday night's episode of the animated sitcom.
In the episode, the Griffin family is watching an ESPN "30 for 30" documentary on the Astros that suggests Oscar the Grouch was the mastermind behind the scheme.

The Astros were punished after Major League Baseball's investigation found they stole signs during the 2017 and 2018 seasons and used trash cans to let hitters know what pitches were coming.
