Tom Brady seized his opportunity to poke fun at the Red Sox on Friday night during Boston’s historic blowout loss against the Toronto Blue Jays, in which it allowed 28 runs.
The former New England Patriots quarterback quickly caught wind before the nightmare had concluded and joked about the football-like score.
“Gonna be a hell of a story,” Brady tweeted while tagging former teammate Julian Edelman.
Perhaps a 28-3 Super Bowl reference?
Brady’s tweet came in response to SportsCenter’s meme tweet following the Blue Jays scoring their 25th run by the fifth inning at Fenway — setting a franchise record by the end of the game.
Edelman made sure to reply on Saturday to Brady’s Red Sox jab, tweeting a Kevin Malone gif — from “The Office” — in response.
The Red Sox proceeded to lose their eighth game of the season against the Blue Jays and their 13th in the month of July. Boston currently sits 12-27 against the American League East and notched a -47 run differential in their last three games — the worst by any team since 1900, according to ESPN Stats & Info.
Game 2 of the Red Sox-Blue Jays’ three-game series is scheduled to begin at 4:10 p.m. ET from Fenway Park, which you can watch live on NESN.
