Orsillo, who attended Northeastern University, worked as an intern for Castiglione while in college.
Orsillo’s first broadcasting gig at the major league level was with the Red Sox in 2001. He served as the team’s play-by-play announcer for NESN until 2015 when the network opted to move on from him and go forward with Dave O’Brien on play-by-play instead.
