One of the pregame features of the Joe Buck/Tim McCarver baseball broadcast on FOX is called "Ford Keys to the Game." It's relatively self-explanatory -- it provides some broad goal each of the teams should be pursuing to best maximize their odds of winning, like "Get to the bullpen" or "No mistakes" or something else similarly obvious and/or cliche. It's usually a mindless exercise not even worth mentioning. But the "Keys to the Game" they rolled out before Monday's pivotal Game 5 in St. Louis represented a hilarious new low. With the series tied 2-apiece, here's the sage advice Buck and McCarver offered the Red Sox and Cardinals:
There you have it, folks: the key to winning the game is to win the game. But how exactly, you might ask? First, by winning the game, and second, by correctly advancing to the city where the next game will be played. Truly insightful, FOX.
