Houston News Channel Has Awfully Effortless TV Caption for Astros-Nats World Series Game 7 Preview
By Ian Anderson
The FOX 26 news channel in Houston might not understand how best-of-seven series work it seems.
Ahead of Game 7 of the World Series between the Houston Astros and Washington Nationals, their pregame story featured this senseless caption on the newscast. And by senseless, we mean painfully obvious.

Ya don't say! A win would certainly be big, wouldn't it? What about a draw? How does this game work again?
As you can expect, people on Twitter weren't going to let this slide.
Thank God!! I have been all over the internet trying to figure out If this is a must win for a Houston.

Is game seven a must win for Nationals also? https://t.co/4XnXwgpW5U
What's funny is that the Astros have been here before two years ago. The Houston news stations shouldn't be new to covering the World Series. Given the way the Astros dominated the regular season and rolled through the postseason, you'd think there's be some creative captions and storylines for these outlets to come up with.
But instead, here we are. Game 7 is a must-win, just like this new story is a big joke.
