The voices of Red Sox players will be echoing in the ears of T riders though October, even if the reigning champions do not make a return trip to the World Series.
The T began playing audio announcements recorded by players today in all 70 of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority's subway stations.
"As a major leaguer, my teammates count on me to hit the fastball," says third baseman Mike Lowell in one of the public address announcements. "That's why I recommend taking the T to Fenway. It's the fastest way to get to the game."
An announcement recorded in Spanish by utility infield Alex Cora reminds riders heading to Fenway that CharlieCards can be refilled inside Fenway Park at kiosks at gates A, C, and E.
Similar public address announcements on the T have been recorded by Bruins defenseman Andrew Ference and Celtics center Kendrick Perkins. The Red Sox announcements will run through October.
