Red Sox congratulate Patriots for ending Boston’s 3-month championship drought
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The Boston Red Sox on Sunday congratulated the New England Patriots for winning the Super Bowl and “ending that 3-month Boston championship drought.”
The tweet came after the Patriots topped the Los Angeles Rams 13-3 in the lowest-scoring Super Bowl in the 53-year history of the game. The Red Sox defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers last October in a one-sided World Series in five games. After an 86-year drought for the baseball club that ended in 2004, the team won four titles in 15 seasons.

The Rams, who averaged 32.9 points a game this season, joined the Miami Dolphins —from Super Bowl 6 in 1972— as the only the second team not to muster a touchdown in the title game.
