Having trouble finding the words to describe what the loss of Jerry means to me, and to all of us who love the Red Sox. He was insightful, funny, and courageous. It was an honor to call him my friend. We will miss him terribly.
#RIPJerryRemy
I've worked with Wake for the past 12 years, and had the honor of covering him for 17 seasons before that. I've never met anyone who loved the Red Sox more, or who better understood how to use the power of sports to help those in need. Absolutely gutted by his loss.
"Thank you guys for being here all year. We'll go get them in 2020."
-Mookie Betts to the crowd at Fenway after scoring the walk-off run to win the game.
15 years ago today. “I can’t circle it, I don’t have my telestrator. Here comes the pizza!” still ranks as the greatest non-baseball calls in the history of baseball.
Beautiful touch by NESN dedicating this conference room to Jerry Remy. Spent countless hours with him here talking baseball, and life. Still hard to imagine a

season without him.
My mother spent decades serving as an election poll worker in Lewiston, ME. It’s a thankless, low paying job. Yet she always drew tremendous civic pride doing it. Because it mattered. Still does. And to claim these people are cheating around the country infuriates me.
If you start playing Game 4 of the 2004 World Series tonight at 8:46, the

MLB couldn’t ask for a better start to the post-season:
TUE: Red Sox vs. Yankees
WED: Dodgers vs Cardinals
Four of the most storied franchises in the sport play elimination games to start the playoffs. Wow.
How good is the
#RedSox
clubhouse chemistry right now? In the 7th last night, after Ian Kinsler made 2 terrific defensive plays, someone in the Sox dugout yelled “we finally got a second baseman who can play!”
It was Eduardo Nuñez, who had been playing 2nd b/4 Kinsler arrived.
My first day at

was 25 years ago today. Best career decision I ever made. Thanks for hanging out with me through thousands of games over the years. And thanks to all the talented people I've worked with - past and present - for making it such a great network.

To be blunt on 4/20, Sox blaze their way to a win in Pittsburgh. Kutter Crawford is smoking, has the lowest ERA in AL. Yoshida's HR provided the spark they needed to light things up. Looking to roll on to a sweep tomorrow. The hope is that Casas' injury isn't chronic.
When I interviewed for a job at NESN in 1995, I stayed that night to catch a Sox game. Tim Wakefield was on the mound, and dazzled for 8.1 innings. I loved watching him pitch and, later, working with him on NESN. Can't imagine the Sox without him.
#RIPWake
I have watched this a dozen times and can’t find a thing he said here that should raise an eyebrow. He’s stating facts. With stats to back them up. And a team now in first place suspends him? Ridiculous.
Here's the clip of Kevin Brown's pregame comments on the Orioles' recent record against the Rays ahead of a series finale on July 23. Sources tell AA these comments led to Brown's current indefinite suspension from Orioles' broadcasts.
Statement from Tim and Stacy Wakefield via the Red Sox. Literally all that needs to be said. Not ANYONE’S place to say anything more. When someone asks for privacy, give them privacy. 🙏🏼
Strange night, emotion-wise. Celebrating/savoring the impressive
#NHLBriuns
win. Praying and holding breath awaiting David Ortiz news. And I know I’m not alone.
JBJ saving his best for last. HR, 2B, spectacular catch. I'll say it again: no one represents his team with more class than Jackie Bradley. He takes time for fans, is thoughtful with the media... he's the kind of player you want to cheer for. If he's moving on, he will be missed.
That’s a wrap on my 20th season as part of NESN’s Red Sox broadcasts. Thanks for following along. This unexpected gift of an October run put this team back in the map. Can’t wait to see what 2022 brings. Thanks for tagging along!

For the past 24 years,
@Jerry_Remy
has been a mentor, a confidant, and most importantly a friend. Devastated by the news he’s fighting cancer again, and know he will fight it with every ounce of strength he has.
Excited to announce that I am joining the
@USLtoPortland
ownership group and joining the movement to bring professional soccer to the original Portland beginning in 2024. I’m not leaving NESN, but helping the group in Portland continue to build momentum.
The officials didn’t lose this game for the Bruins. That’s 100% true.
The officials DID cost the Bruins a chance to win this game. That is also 100% true.
Seven years after retiring from baseball, and more than three years after deciding to give it one more shot, Cam Booser is a Major Leaguer. What a story.
He’s been found. Now the healing begins. And the world will move its attention elsewhere. But the grieving is just beginning in Lewiston. Keep these people in your thoughts and your hearts.
#LewistonStrong
Sox beat the MLB-leading Braves 7-1
-Sox: MLB-best 14-5 since June 30
-Boston is 2-1 vs the Braves this season
-Yoshida: AL-leading 39th multi-hit game, leads AL w/ .320 BA
-Pivetta: 17th relief appearance, 1.98 ERA out of ‘pen
Sox are hot. Fact, not opinion.

Spent the final week of 2021 in isolation after the inevitable positive test. I’d like to thank the vaccine, the booster, my family, the Bowl Committee, Netflix and the cast of Succession for helping me get through the holidays. Happy New Year. Stay safe out there.
Milwaukee just picked up one of the brightest, kindest, & most thoughtful players in the game.
@JackieBradleyJr
always had time for fans, local causes, and us. Those of us around the team will miss his character & his family every bit as much as we’ll miss his Gold Glove defense.
Missing my good friend

Game 4.
Tonight, the
@Astros
can join them as the second team to win a series after being down 3-0.
Most of you have spent the season telling me how this team isn't that good. How they will fade. How it's still early.
I say: relax a little and enjoy the ride. This team isn't perfect. But it's a hell of a lot of fun.
#RedSox
Strange game, baseball. Spend the whole summer complaining that games take too long and now We’re sitting here depressed that this game is over. Pitchers and catchers report in 106 days. Stay warm.
Things that haven’t aged well:
-“We want Boston” chants
-“New York, New York” strolls
-Judges Chambers
-“There’s no bridge to Kimbrel”
-The Yankees have the best bullpen in baseball
-Stanton was a better free agent signing than JD Martinez

Red Sox pitcher Josh Winckowski had jury duty Tuesday. As candidates were whittled down he remained, and it looked like he would be selected. Asked if there was any reason he couldn’t serve, he said “I have to pitch in Clearwater Thursday.” He was sent home.
#RedSox
Garrett Whitlock pitched a scoreless 7th against the Yankees to lower his ERA to 1.31. Lowest of any MLB rookie. Also leads MLB in IP, and is 2nd with 53 SO.
Can we start the Rookie of the Year discussion?
#RedSox
Statement from NESN: “Jerry Remy has been diagnosed once again with cancer. At this time, Jerry’s focus is on his medical treatment. The thoughts and prayers of all of us at NESN and the Red Sox are with Jerry and his family during this difficult time."
Heartbreaking.
Lots of good vibes at Fenway on 4/20:
Sox smoke the Twins, win the series
Houck blazes through 7 strong innings
Verdugo and Chang hit them high and deep for their 2nd HRs
To be perfectly blunt, the Sox rolled through the homestead.
Sox have won 5 straight games and are now in sole possession of first place for the first time since they won their franchise-record 108th game in 2018.

Two weeks ago at this time we were nervously discussing four-way ties, three-way ties, going to New York for the Wild Card game...
…now the Red Sox are 3 wins away from the World Series. What. A. Ride.
