The Houston Astros apologized Thursday for stealing signs during the 2017 World Series, but all it did was remind people of a scene from “The Office.”
Although the purpose of the press conference was supposedly to express regret, many observers noted that no one on the team really seemed that sorry.
“Our opinion is that this didn’t impact the game. We had a good team. We won the World Series. And we’ll leave it at that,” he said, according to The Associated Press.
However, he backtracked moments later, saying, “It’s hard to determine how it impacted the game, if it impacted the game.”
