Tom Brady trolls Royals’ Salvador Perez over funny lost bet
Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez took batting practice on Monday while rocking a Tom Brady jersey, and it clearly pained him to do so. That’s because Perez was forced to wear the Tampa Bay Buccaneers threads after losing a bet, and Brady himself seemed to enjoy it.
Perez made a friendly bet with Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Brett Phillips, his former teammate, prior to Super Bowl LV. Since the Bucs defeated the Kansas City Chiefs, Perez had to wear the Brady jersey prior to the Rays-Royals game on Monday. Had the Chiefs won the Super Bowl, Phillips — a Florida native — would have had to take batting practice in a Patrick Mahomes jersey.
Perez reluctantly held up his end of the deal, but he wagged his finger at the camera at one point and said, “Patrick Mahomes is the best.” As he often does, Brady had a great response on Twitter.
