Tonight is the Major League Baseball All Star Game, where the best players -- supposedly -- from all the teams in the league will battle for supremacy.
Of course, not all teams are equally loved. In fact, some are hated. A lot.
Some number-crunchers at CasinoInsider.com looked at Twitter data to figure out which teams are the most hated in each state. Despite some heated rivalries across the league, only a handful of teams seem to really be hated from sea to shining sea. Here’s a rundown of the hate:
New York Yankees - 28 states
Chicago Cubs - 8 states
Los Angeles Dodgers - 5 states
St. Louis Cardinals - 4 states
New York Mets - 4 states
Boston Red Sox - 1 state
