The Boston Red Sox may be the main attraction at Fenway Park, the oldest MLB stadium in the country, but there’s another performance going on during game day. In another dispatch from World Cafe’s Sense of Place Boston series, you’ll meet Josh Kantor, the organist at Fenway Park since 2003. Kantor explains how he got the job, how he fields song requests, and why it helps to know the ins and outs of baseball. PLUS, what songs come to mind when you think about Boston? WUMB’s Albert O, host of Afternoons with Albert O., shares the essentials.
