One would think a team would take caution after Aaron Judge and Alex Bregman attempted to troll the Boston Red Sox.
As you know, Judge strolled through the Fenway Park concourse blaring “New York, New York” after the New York Yankees’ American League Division Series Game 2 win. Alex Bregman then posted a now-deleted Instagram video of him and his Houston Astros teammates hitting back-to-back-to-back home runs off Nathan Eovaldi ahead of their Game 3 AL Championship Series matchup.
The Sox, of course, went on to win both the ALDS and ALCS to reach the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
After L.A.’s Game 3 win, they tried their luck in trolling Boston with a tweet that read “Damage done.” It was a bit awkward, considering the Dodgers still were down 2-1. Ultimately, they went on to lose the next two games as the Red Sox claimed the World Series in a 5-1 win in Game 5.
Of course, the Twitter world lost its collective mind after the win and had their own fun at the Dodgers’ expense.
Damage done indeed! You think you’d learn from NY and Houston! Boston teams take bulletin board material very seriously and that’s why we are WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS! #119-57 https://t.co/uPh8Rsb4AC

when will teams learn? No team has won a game after taking a shot at the Red Sox.

This tweet aged very poorly.

Trolling the #redsox is always a bad idea

Maybe teams will be more cautious next season when they think about trolling the Sox.
