(UPDATE- This post has been updated to reflect the fact that it was NOT a KKK sign, it was signifying the number of strikeouts.)

People thought there was a KKK sign somewhere at the Cubs-Indians Game 7 tonight:

Wondering why Fox would show the KKK sign with Chapman pitching in bottom of the 8th? Seriously! #WorldSeriesGame7 #WorldSeries pic.twitter.com/mRX6FLEEUQ — Marcel Middleton (@GrindIt2UFindIt) November 3, 2016

@Imani_zamasing of course it was an "Indian" fan ? — PotassiYUMM (@Imani_zamasing) November 3, 2016

Did… did I just see a sign in the bleachers saying “KKK”? #WorldSeries — Trapper Sean, M.D. (@McMahonFirebird) November 3, 2016

If you are at the World Series identify who posted the KKK sign that got on TV. It is not strikeouts. It is a sick, racist joke. — Rocketman (@wooofpak987) November 3, 2016

Umm, did anyone else see the KKK sign at the World Series? Wtf. — Hollee McMurray (@mcmurrayhollee) November 3, 2016

Wait, did anyone else see that KKK sign?? #WorldSeries — megahn✌ (@megahnlee) November 3, 2016

Etc, etc, etc…

It was not. It was signifying the number of strikeouts.

UPDATE – 11/3/16 – As you can see above, many of the Twitter users have deleted their original tweets from last night after they were told what the “KKK” sign meant.
