Jerry Remy Baseball player
Gerald Peter Remy, commonly known as Jerry Remy, (born November 8, 1952) is a Major League Baseball broadcaster and former Major League Baseball second baseman. Remy grew up in Somerset, Massachusetts. An all-star second baseman, he was drafted by the California Angels in 1971, he was traded to his hometown Boston Red Sox in 1977. After a series of injuries forced his retirement in 1985, he took up a career in broadcasting. In 1988 he joined NESN as a color commentator for Red Sox broadcasts, a job he has held continuously (excepting some time off for health problems) since then. He has become a cult hero among Red Sox fans, who elected him the first (and so far only) President of Red Sox Nation, and granted him his nickname "Rem Dawg".
