Major League Baseball requires that its managers engage in a full-blown press conference a few hours before every postseason game. At the 2016 World Series, this allowed me a chance to ask the stupidest question of my long career.Read on for more lameness.
It was at Cleveland’s Progressive Field in the tense moments before the seventh game of the World Series between the Cleveland Indians and Chicago Cubs. It was a situation that required a really futile and stupid gesture.
When Indians manager Terry Francona took his place behind the microphone and breathed a deep sigh, I pounced.
“Would you say this is a must-win game?’’
Francona understood the lame attempt at humor and broke up laughing.
