In the end, it wasn’t even close.

St. Louis Cardinals fans – enduring a month of voting by readers of Ball Eight – were chosen as the “Most Insufferable Fans” in baseball. After easily advancing to the finals, Cardinals fans dismantled Yankees fans 77 percent to 23 percent – a bigger margin of victory even than the semifinals against Braves fans.

In the third place matchup, the Red Sox fans easily defeated the Braves fans 69 percent to 31 percent.

Based on the voting, here is a full ranking of MLB fans from most insufferable to least insufferable, based on the votes recorded over the last month:
