The Red Sox dominated baseball in 2018, finished with the most single-season wins in team history, and ultimately won the World Series in five games over the National League’s champion, the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Scarcely three months later, the Patriots defeated the Rams to win Super Bowl LIII on Feb. 3, 2019, and Boston hosted a second championship parade.
Three months after the Super Bowl, the Celtics and the Bruins are playing in the second round of their respective playoff runs.
It is no longer a question of how far a single team might take its title dreams.
