Lou Merloni, Wade Boggs, Don Orsillo, and more say goodbye to McCoy Stadium

By Trevor Hass McCoy Stadium, the home of the Triple-A Pawtucket Red Sox from 1970 to 2020, was a staple in Pawtucket and beyond for local baseball fans.

In the final days of the stadiums existence, before its torn down in the coming months, former Red Sox players and more took time to express their gratitude.

Here are reactions from those who will always remember it fondly: Former Red Sox and PawSox INF Lou Merloni One last Time!!! pic.twitter.com/IfJEVE7dWw Baseball Hall of Famer and former PawSox INF Wade Boggs McCoy stadium https://t.co/BU2YGJvxOL Former Red Sox and Paw Sox broadcaster Don Orsillo I was ok with saying goodbye to McCoy Stadium @LouMerloni and @Jared_Carrabis until you posted this The left 2 smashed in windows was my booth for 5 seasons and I can see all the seats my grandmother, mother, and father sat in and all are gone now as well.

The @RedSox longtime AAA home.

My favorite part of working for two years at @wpri12 in Providence before leaving for ESPN in 1996.

Like Lambeau in Green Bay, it was a ballpark in the middle of a neighborhood.

A relationship that elevates...

Ill never set foot in that shipping container of a stadium in Worcester, which will eventually go bust & wind up like McCoy.

https://t.co/NBCch31OOJ WBZ sports reporter Dan Roche So many great memories at McCoy Stadium.

Saw future stars there...beginning with @rogerclemens in 1984 when he was throwing pure gas! The people made the place too! From Ben Mondor to Lou Schwechheimer to Bill Wanless to staff and players....just really good people! @LouMerloni https://t.co/2eaivQ80O7 Lost Ballparks Sadly coming to the end of the road for McCoy Stadium, home of the Pawtucket Red Sox.

It opened in 1942 and closed for good in 2021.

For all who read this, I'd love to see your photos of McCoy if you were lucky enough to get there.
