Tom Brady is headed to New England this week for what promises to be a memorable night.
On the occasion, we’re exploring where Sunday’s Buccaneers-Patriots game ranks when it comes to the most notable returns in Boston history.
A few caveats: We’re not including Babe Ruth coming back to Fenway for the first time with the Yankees in 1920. While there are a few nuggets here and there, there’s precious little information on what happened — a New York Times story made no mention of any fan reaction when it came to the 6-0 Boston win on April 19, 1920 at Fenway, despite the fact that Ruth wen 2-for-4 with a double.
