The following game brought a disaster against the Tampa Bay Rays where errors and opposing home runs led to an embarrassing 16-1 loss.

Everyone knows the story of how that pick turned into six Super Bowl titles for the Patriots across a 20-year run of unprecedented NFL dominance. The Patriots posted a graphic and Brady’s infamous scouting combine footage for Wednesday’s anniversary across social media.

Liam Hendriks did his part in an ongoing minor-league tradition during his rehab stint with the Boston Red Sox. Hendriks took care of the players and staff late last summer in Portland and Worcester. With the Red Sox reliever still rehabbing from elbow inflammation this week on the road with Portland in Hartford, Conn. for the Sea Dogs, Hendriks stepped up again. Most MLB players on rehab assignments sponsor meals for the minor-league players, coaches and team personnel during their visits.

The Red Sox got embarrassed Monday night to start the series against the Tampa Bay Rays. Boston saw much better looks in starting pitching, defense and run-scoring Tuesday night with a 7-4 victory. The Red Sox needed a jolt from their stars and their $120 million third baseman answered the call. Alex Bregman put together an exceptional night with his first career five-hit game while he swatted two home runs. “It felt good,” Bregman told NESN’s Jahmai Webster postgame.
