    He didn't want to struggle with it on camera

    Reading the twitter thread, its a grab bag of conspiracy theorists on the one hand and pro-am Cruz-trollers on the other.

    Ultimately this does come back to Texas voters. Understand gerrymandering is bad but Senate, AG and governor races aren’t. Yet people like Cruz and indicted and impeached Paxton continue to win elections.

    cancun cruz says the maga republican house should not fix the nations problems but rather engage in pointless efforts to "impeach" cabinet members who haven't committed any crimes...

    So this was the reason why the Stros couldn't win at home:

    Astros Fans Are Pissed at “Cursed” Ted Cruz for Attending the Game
    The “Cruz curse” is back—and Houston Astros fans are not happy.
    Senator Ted Cruz offended fellow Houston Astros fans Monday night—simply by showing up.

    Ahead of Monday’s playoff game against the Texas Rangers, an outpouring of Astros fans begged the Texas congressman not to make an appearance in the stands, reported Rolling Stone.

    “I appreciate that Ted Cruz, as a dad, loves taking his kids to the @Astros games,” tweeted one fan. “But for the love of all things Houston, let Heidi take them! Send them with friends! It’s game 7 man. We can’t risk this. The whole city is asking you.”

    Still, Cruz appeared, and they bombed, losing to the Rangers 11–4. Attendees were seen piling toward the exits by the sixth inning when the Astros were already down 10–2.

    Cruz has spent a lot of time inadvertently pissing off Houston fans lately. So far in the MLB postseason, the Astros have lost all five home playoff games attended by the jinxed senator, reviving what locals dub the “Cruz Curse.”

    “No matter which team you support in the all-Texas ALCS, you definitely don’t want @tedcruz near your team,” tweeted Texas state Senator Roland Gutierrez, a Democrat running to defeat Cruz and nab his Senate seat, a week before Cruz attended two losing Astros games.

    “For 7 years, Catherine & I have attended nearly EVERY Astros home playoff game,” Cruz tweeted in response to the controversy, calling Rolling Stone “lying hacks.”

    “If they’re going to blame me for our recent home losses, pls also credit us for TWO World Series Championships & SEVEN consecutive ALCS’s—we were there cheering Stros on,” Cruz added.

    Monday’s blowout loss wasn’t the first major loss attributed to Cruz’s curse. In 2018, losing fans pointed fingers at the senator’s courtside appearance during the Houston Rockets’s Game 7 loss to the Golden State Warriors, when the Rockets missed a record 27 straight attempts from three-point range.

    Others have criticized Cruz for compromising their teams when he doesn’t seem to love sports in the first place. Fans seemingly haven’t forgotten Cruz’s blunder during the 2016 Republican primaries, when he referred to a basketball hoop as a “basketball ring.”
