Ex-Detroit Tigers broadcaster Mario Impemba to join Red Sox, per report

It seems Mario Impemba has found a new home ... with the World Series champions.

Impemba, the former longtime Fox Sports Detroit play-by-play voice, is going from watching the rebuilding Detroit Tigers to the Boston Red Sox radio booth, according to a report by the Boston Globe on Tuesday.

Impemba was fired in October after a tussle in September with his broadcast partner Rod Allen. Impemba served as the Tigers’ play-by-play broadcaster since 2002.

WEEI, the Red Sox's flagship radio station, is expected to announce a platoon in the booth alongside Joe Castiglione, who has been apart of the radio broadcast since 1983.
