If anyone outside of Boston has MLB extra innings they're showing the Remy tribute on the station that'll show the game. It doesn't seem like MLB tv is showing it.

Showing the big screen showing the tribute video rather than just showing the video once again. Only this time it's highlighting that the park is nowhere near full (yet, presumably).

It definitely isn't all of them, Hazel Mae and Jamie Erdahl at least aren't there.
The twitter thread above mentions that Hazel Mae does Blue Jays pregame show in the Jay's Toronto studio, and she was doing that for this game as well. So I guess it depends how you define "there".

My favorite night was when Judge Judy visited the booth and Jerry asked her to tell him to sit down and shut up. Then she stole the Dunkin Donuts box and Sean and Jerry showed her in the stands with the box of donuts.

So cool to introduce Yaz coming in from left field. I was hoping he'd feign fielding the ball and throwing a strike to home!

Definitely cool, but he seemed to be laboring by the time he got to his seat. Kinda wish he'd been at the dugout with the rest just so he had someone to walk with him.

Who was the former player who sat to the immediate left of Fred Lynn? (To the left as we saw on camera; it would have been on Lynn's right side)

Watching this reminded me so much of why I cared so deeply about the Red Sox growing up. Those players - Remy, Rice, Lynn, Evans, Burleson, Yaz, Stanley, and others - they weren't heroes, they were Gods. So much of my world, my sense of right/wrong, justice and injustice was wrapped up in following that team from 1967 on through the 70s. Remy's passing puts a denoument to that time of my life. Gods aren't supposed to die.

Evans was a rookie in '73 and Lynn and Rice joined him in '75. As a kid, I thought they would be together forever.

This all just reminds me again... why did the Red Sox love Dave O'Brien so much that they ousted Don? And potentially there's still angst about it 7 years later?

This is (potentially) weak on the Sox’ part, but I also think it’s (potentially) weak on Orsilo’s part to do this tonight. Final judgement will be held back until facts known.

There are many (many!) reasons for my "I'm done being a fan of the Red Sox" but what happened and keeps happening with Orsillo is probably my #1. I don't at all want to turn this into a thread about Don, but I'll never understand what happened on his way out.

I dunno, I think a lot of people would question why Don was ignoring the moment rather than assume the Sox would disgracefully not show his video tribute. Any blame pie is heavily weighted to the Sox unless something very compelling comes to light. In my opinion.
