Once again, there seems to be a little confusion over the difference between Maryland and Massachusetts.

With an Orioles-Red Sox series approaching next weekend at Camden Yards, Boston fans are once again planning a trip to enemy territory. This time, theyโ€™ve planted a flag โ€” within their own teamโ€™s logo.

As first reported by RMNB, the team is throwing a Red Sox in Baltimore party in which all of the visiting team fans can sit together. It sounds like a good way to keep them from being obnoxiousโ€ฆuntil you see the T-shirt.

The Sox put the Maryland flag inside the B logo of the Red Sox. Itโ€™s called the โ€œRed Sox Nation in Baltimore T-shirt.โ€ Seemingly to rub it in, it comes just a couple of weeks after the Maryland Day promotional giveaway at Camden Yards.

It was bad enough when Walmart was confusing Massachusetts with Maryland. Now theyโ€™re trying take the best flag in the country.

That should calm the rivalry.
