Tuning in to NESN tonight for the Red Sox-Twins exhibition game? That voice you hear with Don Orsillo won't be Jerry Remy's.
It will be our own Joe McDonald's.
Remy is sick and unable to make the broadcast, so McDonald -- one of the Journal's two Red Sox beat writers -- will in as a guest color analyst for the first two innings. He and Orsillo have known each other for years; Joe was a frequent guest on Don's "Talking PawSox" television show when Orsillo was the voice of the Pawtucket Red Sox and McDonald was covering the team for the Journal.
