A native of New Haven, Connecticut, Ford attended Somerville High School, where he played on the school's baseball team. He went on to attend Tufts University, where he studied mechanical engineering, and was considered by some as the "premier shortstop in college ball". While at Tufts in 1915 and 1916, he played shortstop for Falmouth in what is now the Cape Cod Baseball League. Ford was signed to a professional contract in 1919 while still a student, foregoing his senior year of college baseball eligibility. He graduated from Tufts University in 1919.

Ford made his major league debut in September 1919 for the Boston Braves, where he was a teammate of the legendary Jim Thorpe. Ford appeared in ten games for Boston that season, playing mainly at shortstop, where he backed up Hall of Famer Rabbit Maranville. By 1921, Ford had become a regular in the Braves' lineup, knocking 155 hits that season, and another 140 in 1922. After the 1923 season, Ford was traded by the Braves to the Philadelphia Phillies.
