| RemDawg With FN Editor In 1992 |
It's been a tough few years for
Jerry Remy. From illnesses to the alleged crimes of his son, life has not been good for the Somerset, Massachusetts native. Remy played seven seasons for
The Carmine Hose and amassed a .286 average over that span—also providing excellent defense at second base. In 1978, he made the All-Star team as a member of the Red Sox. But it was
after his playing days that he truly endeared himself to
Red Sox Nation. Starting as a broadcaster with the legendary
Ned Martin, Remy built up a love affair with the fans—to the extent that he was dubbed
'The RemDawg'. Through all of his troubles, that love affair endures.
Happy Birthday, Jerry!
