Three children dressed in banana costumes during the World Series Game 2 in Texas Saturday night had more on their mind than Halloween.

A teen from San Antonio known as "banana boy" is a Texas Rangers fan who recruited two friends in an attempt to distract Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Merrill Kelly.

Their dancing shenanigans were seen on camera as they were behind home plate in a box at Globe Life Field. 

"Much like the Astros game – which the Rangers lost – the FOX cameras couldn’t avoid the fans going bananas. Literally," Sports Illustrated wrote on its website.

They caught the attention of fans, but apparently not that of the opposing team, as Arizona went to win the game 9-1. 

Not everyone found the tactic appealing. 

"Can someone please get those banana costumes off those boys behind home plate?! Can't even enjoy the World Series. Such a distraction!" one social  media user posted on X, formerly Twitter.
