Remy Jerry Biography

American professional baseball player and sports broadcaster, he played in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a second baseman for ten seasons — three with the California Angels (1975–1977) and seven with the Boston Red Sox (1978–1984). After retiring from professional play, he served for 33 years as a color commentator for televised Red Sox games until his death. Remy was drafted by the California Angels in 1971 and began his major league baseball career on 7 April 1975. He transferred to the Boston Red Sox in 1978, and gave up his pro ball career in 1984 after a knee injury sidelined the second baseman. In March 1988 he entered the broadcasting field as an announcer and sports analyst for the Boston Red Sox. He was married with three children. He was diagnosed with lung cancer in late 2008 and underwent surgery in November. No follow up treatment was needed but in January 2009 an infection sent him back to the hospital. At spring training in April 2009 he and his co-workers realized that he had changed and he announced in May that he would take a leave of absence to deal with his illness. Still on his leave in mid-August 2009, he acknowledged that he has been suffering from depression, another reason that he had not been seen in the announcers booth for most of the season. Remy died of lung cancer on 30 October 2021, nine days before his 69th birthday. Link to Wikipedia biography Read less
