The Kansas City Royals adopted an unusual mascot last week, which they credit for helping them win five of six games.
The mascot was a praying mantis. Crediting it for the team’s winning streak, the insect was nicknamed, “Rally Mantis.”
Alas, Rally Mantis is no more. According to The Kansas City Star, the mantis died Friday night.
Royals pitcher Danny Duffy created a wacky tribute video as the team mourns the loss of their lucky bug.
