Rish is on the mike, as usual on Wednesdays. Nobody told the board op back at the station, who played the Joe C/Obie playin.
If there's anything interesting to say during the game, I'll log it here.
[ok, not much of a game up to the 9th]

Game Tied!!!!! 5-5
6-5 final. As Rish said at the close, "we had them all the way"

Lou, I went back through some of your previous posts so I apologize if this has been answered already.
I don't listen to every Sox game on radio (or for that matter when I do listen it may not even be for the whole game), but up until this year I was always pretty good at guessing the inning before I even heard it mentioned.
Under the previous announcer rotation, Joe always called innings 1-2, 5, 8-9 and all odd-numbered extra innings. This year it seems to be all mixed up, as there have been times I've heard Dave call the ninth. Are they still using a format or does it now change by the game? And does Dave actually do any ESPN-related commitments on nights other than Wednesdays? Is that why he's not always calling the same innings, because he has to run off during the Sox broadcasts and report/record something for ESPN?
Forgot to also mention that Joe still appears to hold to the old 1/2/5/8/9 format when he does Wed. games with Rish, although I'm not listening today.
Also, is Dale even part of the rotation anymore or has Rish been promoted to full-time third guy status (with his postgame talkshow duties eliminated)?
