The five major Boston-area pro sports teams sent the same tweet at the exact same time on Tuesday morning, commemorating the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing with a heartwarming demonstration of camaraderie.

The tweet, which was sent by the Boston Red Sox, Bruins, Celtics, New England Patriots and the New England Revolution at 10 a.m. ET, read, "We're all on the same team. #BostonStrong." It included an image featuring the hashtag, the blue-and-yellow Boston Strong ribbon and the logos of the five teams placed on top of a photograph of marathon runners.
