" tonight show. And -- might Knight told me. Instead to rest and the old saying I'm always happen Danish I hit like if so Bob how do you like the -- to Mikey show. These pain tonight show Bjorkman in pain tonight show it's the music that cheeky after the -- the -- of the show. We're almost vampire when Mike starts talking then it will be good -- my -- What are -- sports really you. Yeah WEEI."

" Factor on the planet Mikey show our phones are open for -- 617779. 8588525 -- you are. Our guest tonight is a guy who regrettably we haven't seen in awhile he's been busy -- Italy and then what else to -- be dominated me all over the place."

" Been involved a couple of marketing businesses and I have Leah speaking program business I guess -- travel with that public speeches -- public speaking you know on the motivational stuff and team work its era and so you know it's it's been very busy really really enjoyed myself and thank god my health as okay and joining grandkids my kids wife how many grandchildren and eight he greeted reds owner is uniform always bunches yeah right twins and two other voice yet twins -- there in the middle in the oldest and the youngest and seven a grand kids seven girls. Law my -- prayers -- didn't you order your -- did you warn your -- about the cost -- a wedding NC rough hack it it's. And hey what's going on here let's go you kids that you got one wherein lies ahead Jordan in he's great NASA money so no I've I've. And very thankful but I do I do I don't know if you want to that's -- took baseball absolutely I I. Really enjoyed. Not the outcome but that basketball game Celtics man alive but I have two games have been out of flew -- back -- as a as a franchise in the in the foreground of the NBA they look like winners to me although as you said last night they lost by what six points. But you don't you don't win a mall at home it at least that's what I'm told I thought that they were going to use at home court advantage and we just home games in Seattle opening it to and it did -- him -- It's got to continue that you know there were different teams with the the Minnesota Twins against Atlanta a year where the home team won all league games it was the twins won all home games won the world championship. But that's a seven games the Celtics. Can I say something about so the actual. It's up the fans those who complaining and I've heard which shows that it -- in the morning show and everything because those in the car. And they have some nerve those who complain -- to complain about this team that really mean that sincerely -- or some -- is the moaning and groaning about this guy didn't do that that the coach didn't do this this guy that -- if somebody's angry. And you right in the middle not even not even in the middle of the the series. That could mean one of two things there the betting on the game and they lost that's true or their fantasy guy or girl and there you know the guys took the hats -- reason I didn't come our way. This team. That you remember the last ten years. I'd enjoy the Celtics and this is a terrific team in I mean it's been -- very exciting run."

" You know I gave up on getting mad about anything that didn't go my way from a fantasy perspective back when Vera Fossett went out at me and -- in this turn it down that's all -- to go I go back. But speaking of that -- fewer of course a player during an era a different era of Celtics glory. -- when -- first came to Boston -- that you would -- 645 like him 63 for awhile and a of them went to its AAA ball and came back up and 65 so you had a nice run -- of having the Celtics -- the dynasty that was back then after time ordering the players that you got -- over the course Europe. Your your sports experiences here."

" Oh yeah I mean almost all of them Tommy and Bob cousy and have a chance tablets sick -- I don't integration out of him. He looked great night and some of the others as well. But yes they had great -- the data and draw. I mean you could you could walk get him by -- mean that was ridiculous and done that now that's just the way it was in now forget."

" It's dates and it's a whole new world when it comes of the whole ticket sale thing Rico Petrocelli who was over the Red Sox for two of their World Series teams and one of course and 67 you're home run that World Series -- to -- that's the other three run shot. Did you."

" It was evidence. It's a it's big it's getting one off a great but he -- red did you have a after all over and and no three run shots. And intercourse and 75 against the Cincinnati Reds the Red Sox and Jones --"

" 33 years -- And we've talked many many times but those two teams in the 75 and 67 Red Sox in up to now to 86 that was really all the Red Sox fans talk about it here about. Since then however and so -- particular. 11 final four they want to know seven do you think that there's any. I'd downgrade in intensity of the Red Sox and now that they've put two World Series championships together for. Well no I mean expectations from the fans I think I think that's. I agree with them or what's the word warrior you know. Acceptable because the Sox have won -- World Series that's why say that the of the Celtic fans. Should not complain at all about 42 years Matta no matter what happens here you know in this series win Alou but anyway yeah the expectations are high. It would be very very disappoint. Disappointing I'm sure you get a lot of calls on the station here about the Red Sox and should be used in a row -- and -- out of first place what. I think that's going to happen it's almost an overall first time is it in my recollection now that the Celtics are back. In the foreground -- speaker you know everybody's consciousness. Here's the Red Sox they've won seven in a row and were not really talking about them very much because of the focus on the Celtics was it like that when you were agreement. Now now it was a RO boy it would be that we dashes in the states at a little knowledge that's that's insane. We kind of taken for granted -- good team the good athletes a good pitching. Very few weaknesses actually and so we kind of say it's 17 okay -- scratch. -- credit to the Celtics that the Celtics. -- had an exciting year Bruins did well I mean. But he -- city's sports wise yeah and of course we we were all recovery from the Super Bowl lack of victory there we won't talk about that tonight. The Red Sox now looking for very -- tonight -- remember 67. That you guys impossible dream team had the and ten game winning streak which took you out on the road. And when you came back to Boston. There were people waiting for you with the airport you remember that night aren't sure do I mean there was over 15000 people. Don't they count them one by one but that's they said they -- second through security now that's true but they -- wait for it go wait -- the the adults -- kids -- the parents took the kids to the -- to -- the team -- it was so exciting -- mean. It was great fact we almost we almost went around the the tarmac the year and there were talking about. Sneak in -- out because of so many people but then. I looked in the that he -- that the Williams what are we doing here you know people came to CS let's go prove that normal ways and we did a Beatles so yeah I mean c'mon. But it was great it was really great. Now in 1960s."

" I would of course you know we're going back -- 41 years in history and that was it that was the first time this team had been had been competitive. For a long long time at that point time. It was a little bit different 75 for you because you know of the team after 67 was pretty competitive team. You didn't really fall back into that you don't ninth place stuff after 67. So what was different about in 75 getting to the World Series that that 67 was a magical."

" Virtual yet that was all unexpected I mean knows just came out of blow bank though people so excited they've got a lot of interest the brought back to baseball but you know I look back at 75. I think of 741 because the same thing with the with the Red Sox in 2003 where they lost the game you know. Right and a disappointing when they took. Pedro out and puts Aaron Boone yeah -- say it -- but. Seven before we had an eight game lead seven -- eight game -- going -- delayed barks right and we just stop hitting. Louis was there he pitched great they you know number of the pictures lost one enough that we just could not put anything together. And we ended up seven games out on very disappointing so the next year this front offices let's bring the young guys picked comes rights. And land that was to White a couple of years and -- belt -- to also curls it from guys who company wanted to Royals on talent awe and we went down you know we get world's there's a."

" Peoples that talk about how Terry Francona is a perfect guy to manage this team the way he handles all the different personalities like the way he answers questions about his strategies along the way it's something that -- You know the Jimy Williams's of the world didn't do much government. You know in this market. People command credit. It's not support -- may have doesn't need to know what's going on on every level the Red Sox Francona seems to handle that pretty well what's -- always been a great job."

" I mean I think the Red Sox organization before or right after they and they bought the team I think the they were they researched and and and came up with things to do oh that wasn't done that weren't done in the past season. -- I think one of thing is handling the press when I say handling being accessible to the press. The manager answering the questions don't give the wise answers you know putting down everybody. And they raise the level the good the respect level and and Terry does that -- that he does that -- his players so and they respect him for."

" They seem to really really like him I don't know you know you had it in your history with the -- such -- quite a few different managers are right approach through. Was it Darryl Johnson was he was your final manager. Darrell Johnson or the positives are always different David took -- for him that's right well you know 76. But you had an interesting array of different people and certainly that the role of the managers changed over the over the course years as you say the media becomes more much more important part of their duties. To deal with the media on an everyday basis as a lately gaze on between front office ownership and the players who lets face it they're different out to they make a helluva lot more money. They are all small corporations and how these players so you gotta be kind of a guy who's able -- to deal with all those different elements. Who is your favorite manager from me first -- from a personal relationship that you liked the most and secondly if it's a different person who was the best manager from -- tactical standpoint for you."

" While the guy probably like the most Darrell Johnson he was so easy to get along with than. If you wanted to do certain things he said yes you know try it NC for works. Sometimes we gave signals to a man on first we -- you know or hit and run. And he went along with that different things. So I would say it was him although Eddie casket was great you know he was like early it's only once every two yeah -- yeah right. And them -- it was -- these street baseball man all he has to run through that wall few crickets the Bulls and he loved you know. People who did that -- and just at its all suck -- and act as -- down at that. But the guy tactician wise it is on all of fame this year equaling Dick Williams and not address like manager -- but I said he could get away with that then yeah cause that's when you take over teams its loss. Front office says today which you have to do you know what title losing he was tough but he was he was very good. Tactically he would think of a few innings ahead have guys ready to -- of the bullpen. Call in this that don't get up yet when it's this happens you. You know you you get up on throwing things like that in them today it was a smart."

" You spent many years at shortstop before moving to third base later on in your era in your career -- I think girls and came along was that when you made the Luis. Do we separate operation of course -- seven to adapt yeah he desert and you know Hall of Fame shortstop so you've moved to third base but I'm going to Julio Lugo. Right now and you know I know they went out they spent nine million dollars a year for years on this guy and I was kind of an Alex Gonzales -- I like the way Gonzales played the position. But the Red Sox I guess deemed that they needed needed more offense that position and went -- got Lugo. He's had some problems he's got twelve what how many errors does Lugo how many errors is Lugo have twelve visit. Eleven errors so far this year and you weren't sure with the owner of every consecutive Aramis streak as a shortstop for."

" Are you made at that time which was that the tied for the fewest in the American leak. All time but before with fourteen. However Lugo. I could pretty much see his problem what is he's on his heels a lot of it he doesn't charge the ball. If you if you could recall are the other short stops that we've had in recent years. -- pretty good short -- could feel the soft hands but charged the ball charged Woolsey you have if you get to a normal ground ball regular ground ball. Right at two or little bit you left the right my you have to turn in your momentum has to be going towards first base. -- a lot of times catches the ball but now he goes on his. Now we goes on his -- step back already runs towards first base he tries to throw on the run down he's he's so -- balance they've tried to work with -- one."

" You know that's tough though because you know when you when you consider that position now he was -- lead off hitter. And you expect certain things offensively from leadoff hitter than they set maybe not a lead -- and it from the ninth. Last year he batted in his first year recession from 237 but has a lifetime to 75 guy. And even now with a quiet to radio whatever it is he's hitting you don't know really though only nine of ten runs batted in no home runs doesn't he kinda. Feel the pressure of needing to be at least."

" A pretty good defensive shortstop for fairly effective and you're just under your place short second -- if Drew pretty good defensive player. But -- you are right the Red Sox were looking for more offense. And of course he killed them every time we played the Red Sox -- when he was with Tampa bay that was what all the way -- and he was incredible. Elimination or rather addition by subtraction taken off your opponent maybe want to purchase them but I I just loved Gonzales but he was sparkling shortstop -- shortstop -- like he said he. He could throw off balance gets very soft hands which is really nice enough always make good throw down the and of course at third base old he -- attack the guys he's got the soft hands. He Smoot and it's like Zorro over them Agassi he seems to handle all the everything becomes is wait a hard one hoppers exploded out beat the -- was right it was lefties government is very good I mean is his range isn't the greatest but the only team get to league. He catches and makes the good throws good ball player who played cleanly no question about it."

" We're talkin' baseball an old friend Rick is not penalty so he's still a young man yeah yeah Julia at a birthday coming up member Paul Byrd's early twenties I don't know more. Rico practice so he's here talk of baseball take your phone calls for Rico 6177798588852 advisory fifty and we will be right back would you call."

" Why won't let the other soon gave way about -- about bonds."

" In this in his -- off the monster. Ellsbury is CNN and down. They're going to call a solo home run the finger in the game by time and now Landis saying it is gone it and that's going to be a Grand Slam."

" to play tonight three games at 930 and then the the actual game is at 10 o'clock they're playing out overdo the Rich -- against Tim Wakefield. Just keep Rolen on like the old man river Wakefield I don't know how old -- now eighty he's been around a little bit you know Medicare card."

" There was still a young man is Rico Petrocelli who's been. Friend of mine for a long long time and a friend of Red Sox nation's for forty. 45 years in a household name should oh my god I just thought about that that's a long time now -- that's almost as long as Ted Kennedy's been a senator that you know. Yeah I remember beating him my first year in Washington acts that he -- production name. Call me Sosa Sosa and and you don't want this guy certainly has by the semi serious turn out well we we do all this India it is okay you know it's a tough tough on things and to hear that from anybody you know. About heaven you know malignant brain tumor and via our prayers go out to -- to the family of Senator Edward Kennedy an old friend on the phone for it to this is what you probably remember franking Gloucester red."

" When its markets and went for it all yeah. You know it's hard to tell what he's saying with a whole this coming up executives Steve. It now remember that yeah yeah yeah jacket and he hasn't taken it off the owners. --"

" Michael Vick -- I don't want to say I don't want to a couple of things of Ross and one we go. Cricket coach can accept it mattered it was such a weapon like manager put -- aspirations and I'm also not related but I don't got your back about it Jack. I don't -- want to win why you don't want a guy like PO I don't want."

" Q and he missed you he was alive when I was working for the Red Sox and I had as a manager -- league's coach. So it wasn't that it was just one of those things I. I think I enjoyed managing I I'd love to coach hitting because you know -- as a coaching -- and players and you get to them."

" These you don't have to have that -- Leroy -- yeah."

" because they're just -- equipment and I am going to they'll want to say Rick replied except I believe Jordan's old book and it's not a big deal is that. Not many shortstop in baseball picks for the old buds and I particularly one of them."

" I know he's got up I'm not sure that's sure -- nineteenth."

" effect frank at 640 home runs sixty loud Italians oh my god my Brothers and I need a phone."

" But I don't follow I don't go to the you know don't sign language doesn't yell it out and I think. Francs a piece of work now you you hit the forty homers 69 didn't it take until was -- 828 route 28 rod came along the -- to thirty years that's pretty good yeah."

" you know and just double A rods a great player he -- use he's got a lot of talent you know with ICM we see him on replay in all that. He looks like he swings so easy now you -- it goes obviously 61 read something in the Astro but boy. Six that the -- fifteen rows up plus strong these days now you know --"

" Thing is Rico to medium tainted from being channeled mark but. When I look at anybody now it's that anybody that hits over forty home runs right now my first thought -- steroids and I and I it's really rotten that I have to go there with that but it's not my fault. Is it needs to follow all the players that that actually did a minute and the Barry Bonds can't hit it provides kids take all those guys. Warning if for these players who could be completely clean but not going to sit there aren't as their clean you know like in the old days."

" Did not they're pretty stupid -- taken even the I was HGH you know they don't take steroids anymore no no matter on age if they do it's the -- Yates in. There's no I guess that -- circuit -- On that well they don't have any tests but I I -- in my own testament we think in this a lot of people think I'm -- course. But my idea was you get to spring training and is a guy stand there without looks like a broomstick. And on the top of it is a device that measures your head size cranium and -- bottom of it is set us up and a measure testicles. And it you if -- if wants to small it was too big you set for the year."

" Good god that is and I -- that's a dollar out of the vice now you're Clark. Let's go to up glued Framingham a little bloop good sailor -- On the -- Question you or. -- It hit your back first guy out to home plate has Rico you know. I was on that. -- Oh."

" In the regular -- it was every game and it going to win eight in short and but it's a bit different. The Celtics are tactical point -- what we -- That's why you -- people here like a well the Red Sox -- minister games as opposed to. The -- no we have oh yeah yeah and and it it anyway even that the ball where at this point. Well it will be yet Detroit. Red wings are bought it -- debate got overshadowed the great state Patrick subsequent. Right now little bit 88 iron and made on in the year. But the Red Sox were going for the and -- on you know waiting VAL eat whatever it got paid to play football at waiting for the what gays and well. You know what's going to get more attention."

" Well I was I haven't -- in Colorado in the World Series and I was watching you know -- back that'd be prior to the night games to watch the football game with the Brady knows the game they won 52 -- a ten or something like that it's wash Redskins. And I thought it was excitement on both levels and that's not to say -- the Red Sox fans -- people. In Boston can't handle more than once sported time. When the Red Sox a 67 played yet the Celtics were good back down this late sixties early seventies I missed I think everybody has the capability to win that but it's just rare that you guys in the media. When is baseball going on you know baseball football baseball and hockey going on in you know you're going to be on the show the next night in. Can be ready ready ready to get those the TVs where the I would call featuring a picture the picture up --"

" Gladys Knight not yet. And I moved in you to take care Reagan Rockland there's this guy Rico's area electric our sport. I'm on board oh yeah it's like one."

" Yeah I -- question for your. The bags from the Bible Spirit of the favorite game six of Coke -- home -- with the there's all valid. I don't know you're -- bench. --"

" Yeah I saw it on the on the bench yes."

" It oh absolutely I knew it. The -- A fax it to all the money before I went up the you're gonna hit a home run in this -- real name is -- I don't know about -- course not the NL but are -- or -- the thing we know White -- we thought -- had a great -- it went -- this was one of the best. The best low ball hitters not that he was a bad high ball hitter who's pretty good but man alive or this guy it was a sinker ball are now. And he threw a lot of votes in doubles I came in to the right hander and sure enough this -- He's a funny thing about that is too and that and I mean this is a deserving hall of Famer there's no doubt that. But the fact of the matter is I think Carl -- might have had to wait a little longer to get in the Hall of Fame had it not been for a man named Bernie car ball -- the point."

" Ever go to Portland be your result yes -- compare -- appealed that club that we. The -- seven club."

" The 7 club the six as the Mets are so the 67 talent wise overall. 7 club out a lot more yeah there's no doubt you know that don't forget Craig at the 6070 was. Very young team Derek always -- for that season Mike Andrews was 24 you had Tony C always 22. During a year long board the aces staffed 2425 years old at the turn point 5 -- just -- the oldest guy and it's so you guys were young man that was just crazy unheard of to have a team with the average age of about 24 five and doing that well but these last few years the Red Sox and actually 2003. Who the present day they've they've this team has been outstanding talent why. I mean you go you know just as the team now just terrific really."

" That walked more -- setting up throughout kick apologists believe I'm hoping for a third game of the best you."

" But just as Cole is on the three. -- Rico the treatment that they don't even -- the trees anymore they took away almost -- actual bathrooms now at all by where else up and it's more questions a quick exit and it's gone -- we have him on tape he does he have to repeat himself. Let's go to sky he's about to rock -- yesterday there is."

" Scott how are you liking liking like you know life was not an amateur you realize the depth of Rico -- guest tonight. You know how Rico become an issue here with this one I don't delude it's not my father in law clean total houses sometimes become that was rations sometimes -- chunk. And it also -- come across something they got interest in and so he gave me some and a couple of months ago. And it's a record out. Red Sox organ music favorites are yet that's like John Kiley would Rico Petrocelli on --"

" Teach you play drums would John -- well we went to the Studio One year burden also operate and assists on a fool around. And really didn't play all I was doing is keep going to beat him because he's -- different songs that I used to -- into Jazz a little -- you know. But he didn't and next thing I -- this is an album buckled."

" you wanted to talk and so did you get anymore going to you know Beckett says with. Featuring and we don't want to run he got to -- that I don't think it's going to give him out you certainly don't you know what you know what because nowhere on the album -- list -- right it is. And -- all looking picture on the back. I can only really recognize a couple of these guys are you know what I re able to look at them."

" What are your picture seventies and 734."

" None nowhere here earlier yeah like you're kidding me out -- like --"

" Yeah must've been in the late sixties."

" That's funny and -- you know what's the -- to say like on your baseball cards in the Red Sox yearbook you know. Rico enjoys playing the drums in his spare time and they said that it -- They asked you or something you know is he says it was towards strengthening the arrests while yak you know because the questions they askew in Award and -- 25 years. And so with the -- ask me about it in fact 69 on the cardinals' home runs this -- it's all right play the drums you know. And music like -- And of also -- my arrests because you practice on the -- catcher hit hall bugle I practiced for right right. And so Nixon and 1 now -- had an all musicians team you know Jack McDowell on guitar yeah Harmon's fan zone on the trumpet. You playing the drums says it is or anybody else read that that few well officials Peter Gammons in. Oh right -- group there and -- used to sing you tell us a lot of other. Former players and players today that -- instruments now you may talk a caller asked about the Tony seeping of course you know the video was clear that you'd -- the first -- you run deck and use of berry berry good dear friend to yours. I was watching that 67 presentation that they put together. That you mentioned. Going over to his house and haven't pasta. And that's how you get an -- this -- done with the office. And as it Tony's house his mom makes about -- Thursday is that -- you go over there regularly was right there you know out of the cameras site -- yet."

" When Don asked me that question it's a -- gets bigger and stronger as is -- Lotta pasta and meatballs and stood video with Tony's house and that you know. And they were laughing and now when I was a kid I did your mind my mother and father from the old country and those -- these to make it from scratch. And that the cost and all kinds of you know meats and all that stuff so. I had heard really a lot as a youngster and and I started to you know cut down as I was at Wimbledon."

" As we all need to do on occasions. He's at Arlington you're on -- Rico Petra silly Keith."

" We go well I have my track -- are very good very good post a comment that a quick question. Quality young -- probably probably 1980 want to say. I just pull party in Lexington and I've probably been eleven technical like looked out. I can't look at we've approach solely those programs are too short off to it's we got -- just sort -- a -- what -- party here Lexington. You and I actually -- out fairly -- but it is not --"

" Yeah yeah hours -- a great family great guy great family and I was more -- I -- more shocked actually been meeting with such a Sally you know. Well you Rico cut out all I could record your whole life deficit."

" Ernie Ernie knew a lot of the players small teams you know he was so really solid guy and he was involved in the baseball chapel program at Fenway. Mostly at Fenway Park."

" I actually looked Bernie actually -- in my brother haven't thought about memory I'm sixth grade -- you know brought into Fenway Park. -- one day can you get a little -- America I mean I'd let Jim rice was like baseball -- time Dwight Evans then. I guess sort of the best off -- by the Red Sox that they that was actually in the spotlight their child and I'm related to get. Doctor right development satellite yeah memory -- about it but I make my questions it was a streak now are beginning that obviously changes advantage of playing time. Are right. And I think about today's game that. You don't necessarily agree what what you wish they had stock but that annual playing at it's different."

" Well not too much only because when I look at -- the players. You know have the great opportunities now this free agency there's a lot of money to be made on the field the rules pretty much the same the only difference one thing. The -- one thing in that is. The DH. Yeah and the reason is because I've broken without the DH and I think that's the game was invented without the DA you know not that it's sold bad. You know because it does give players an opportunity to play in the summer all the players opportunity to hang around who."

" An intern distorts the record books 'cause they didn't have DH -- a lot of the guys hung them up utilities down some guys could hung on a lot longer maybe enhance their their career numbers. With the DH thing in the other part of that is too and believe we will talk to hopefully soon. Talks about this all the time. And -- of -- a pretty good hitting pitcher out there are some it's the only chance you get to be to complete baseball athlete is -- your good hitting pitcher real yeah you know that's it was a very good hitting pitchers but also. That's one and the other thing is that if they have the DH. Then he should have been in both leagues or not -- you know."

" Which about it DA should be able all week I -- to DH. If Sammy is selfish because well we'd have a DH without but the it would rookies they'll get -- races I know that's I want it but you don't want."

" Ortiz -- be played first base and -- he's got bad knees as he gets sucked it up play out there with a bad knees and this is what I mean there have been a lot of guys are Orlando -- pay to have bad knees and he did become a DH in 73 which extended his career a little bit. But the fact is that they're real lot of guys it would follow that category prior to the the advent of the designated hitter. And I'm it also changes all the numbers I mean if your pitcher in the American League night -- faced nine hitters is that eight and a half. Yeah has so yeah numbers are not going to be as good -- so."

" Thank you talk to me that it was guys and that's the only damage to balance it."

" hey guess what another Italian guy Joey is stone -- Joey."

" might let you know I'd still worked. I have a bar yeah I don't know all -- about it tomorrow dude sued joke that I 1960 that. It's when that might like bill we had a -- the -- well it will. I was at my wife at butler used eight came back in the old west coast trip. Oh wait a lot lately is raised -- the Albert -- at the turning point of every of your baseball life. At all we -- at that --"

" That was yeah we got everybody excited you know. Just as this team go back to that no comparison them compare them but anything that happened with this team this they start winning people got. You know more more interest -- just yet kids got -- system makes -- general I don't try."

" I was there I was which. Listen you -- etiquette. --"
