WATCH: White House roasted for mistakes about the Red Sox

The Boston Red Sox were honored at the White House Thursday for their 2018 World Series title.

But it seemed that getting that simple, factual sentence correct was a task more difficult for the White House clerks than the internet believed it should be.

Before the event, the White House YouTube page and Website listed the day’s event spelling out Red Sox “Red S-O-C-K-S.” That error was corrected, but when the transcript of President Donald Trump’s comments during the ceremony was emailed out, there was another noticeable error: The email subject line read “Remarks by President Trump Welcoming the 2018 World Cup Series Champions Boston Red Sox.”

Of course, there is no such thing as the World Cup Series Champions.
