Jerry Remy is working in the Boston Red Sox broadcast booth for the first time in more than three months.

The color analyst on the team’s telecasts returned Friday night for Boston’s game against the Yankees. He took a leave of absence in early May after developing an infection and pneumonia following surgery for lung cancer late last year.
