The Remdawg Returns!!

W

WMC2006

Jerry Remy returned to the NESN booth for an inning just a few minutes ago for the first time since April.

Turns out, he has been suffering from severe depression following his battles with cancer and an infection. He came back "too early" back in spring training and then came back briefly early in the season.

But he came back for a visit which he called "very therapeutic". He doesn't know when he'll be back for good but he does have a date in mind although he didn't want to divulge that because he's already missed two tentative come-back dates.

He lost alot of weight during the process but is gaining that back.

During the commercial break between half-innings, he was shown on the big scoreboard at Fenway and received a very nice ovation from the Fenway Faithful.
 
Jerry returns this Friday

NESN and Jerry Remy have announced that Jerry returns to the broadcast booth this coming Friday night for the Yankees-Sox series at Fenway Park. Jerry will return in a parttime capacity, presumably covering home games only. If that's the case, that probably means more Dave Roberts for road games. Roberts has been the weak link amongst the roster of subs this season.

Frank "Sweet Music" Viola hasn't been too bad these last few games.
 
Remdawg doing only home games - kinda like a Vin Scully-sorta deal. Great to have him back!
