Have you ever imagined yourself in front of the microphone, staring across Fenway Park from the press box, while your voice booms out to 37,000 fans? Well, you don't need to be homeless, but if you have a golden voice and a little experience with a mic, you could be the Red Sox public address announcer for a day.
"We do like somebody who brings a little personality to it as well," Red Sox president and CEO Larry Lucchino said of the position. "That's an important part of it."
Since the passing of former Fenway voice Carl Beane earlier this month, the Sox have had a huge void to fill in the stadium. Rather than leaning on one person, the club has turned to a rotating cast of substitutes to announce the likes of David Ortiz and Josh Beckett. Now, the club is sending out an open invite for those want to try the job for a day. The only requirement is some sort of previous public announcing experience.
Watch the video above to hear Lucchino explain how you could get the chance. He also announced that Cody Ross will be on NESN on Wednesday to talk about his Calling All Kids charity.
