FOX Shows Mets-Royals World Series Graphic Before the ALCS Ends

What's really going on, FOX?

UPDATE (10/24/15): FOX was right. Royals win 4-3.

We'd like to think sports are decided by the teams instead of some Illuminati organization—or FOX. However, the network tossed up some bait for conspiracy theorists.

It showed a graphic advertising the Royals-Mets World Series. That's a bit wild because the Royals didn't beat the Blue Jays yet.

Don't pay attention to the triangles, but do note that the World Series starts on Tuesday.

Anyways, the scene happened as the Royals were winning 3-1 at the bottom of the seventh. In an effort to defeat fate, Toronto scored two runs to tie the game.
