But she quickly became frustrated when Phillies fans took aim at her husband, Astros pitcher Justin Verlander, in a bid to break his concentration.
In response, she stuck her fingers up at the home supporters, who didn’t seem to be too fazed despite the already-hostile environment.
The Astros went on to win the penultimate game 3-2 before clinching the World Series in game six.
Houston secured a triumphant 4-1 win over the Phillies on Saturday to claim the coveted title at Minute Maid Park.

And Kate was in attendance to watch her husband lift the trophy.
The mum-of-one was quick to get involved with the celebrations once the game had ended as she took to the field to crash Verlander’s post-game interview.
She told Fox Sports: “It’s such an incredible experience.
“Having Justin home and being able to be together as a family is so amazing.
