Ex-Red Sox announcer Don Orsillo says he was uninvited from Jerry Remy tribute

The Boston Red Sox paid tribute Wednesday to their former color commentator, Jerry Remy, but his longtime partner, Don Orsillo, said he was uninvited from the festivities.

“I was offered the opportunity to do a video message for my friend and former partner Jerry Remy for tonight’s ceremony at Fenway Park,” Orsillo tweeted Wednesday evening.

“Sadly, I was notified by Red Sox/NESN that my video would no longer be needed for tonight’s ceremony.

Remy, who also played in MLB for 10 years, died last October at the age of 68 after a lengthy battle with lung cancer.
