October might be over but the fever of baseball is still hot in November. With a 3-2 win in Game 5, the Houston Astros have defeated the Philadelphia Phillies in consecutive games on their own turf.

And when talking about the game, the Astros outfielder Chas McCormick was not the only one who made an outrageous effort to jump at the fence. A streaker also caught the attention of millions of baseball fans when he tried to evade security and had a failed attempt while trying to jump across the fence.
World Series streaker became troll material during Game 5 between the Houston Astros and Philadelphia Phillies
After the Game 5 victory, once again the Houston Astros are the favorites to win the Fall Classic. Justin Verlander from the mound, Jeremy Pena from the plate, and Chas McCormick from the outfield won the game for the Astros. One can easily say that it was a team effort from the American League champs.
Coming back to the ballpark invader, he tried his best to escape the security and ump the wall at Citizen park. However, the streaker miserably failed to do so and became a source of entertainment for MLB fans.
Taking to Twitter, baseball fans took a dig at his failed attempt. Several fans even called him dumb for trying to jump the wall.
There's an idiot on the field. He tried to scale the left-field wall. He failed.
At least he didn't get tased.

Imagine paying $4,000 for a World Series ticket only to get dragged out during a one-run game in the 6th.

We need harsher penalties for those who do this, so many recently

One fan noticed while the invader tried to jump the wall, someone from the stand threw a bear can at his face. “He was hoping for a hand, but caught a beer can to the face. Well done, Phillies fans,” he tweeted.
I love how staff security ran into each other and fell at the same time

Although the Astros have a 3-2 lead over the NL champs, they won’t make the mistake of taking the Phillies lightly. Because with Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber, and Aaron Nola by their side, the Phillies know how to turn the table around.
Given the Astros need only one win to win the championship, do you think the Phillies can bounce back?
