Mets broadcaster Keith Hernandez's oblivious reaction to near-miss foul ball sends SNY booth into hysterics
Things did not go well for the New York Mets on the field Thursday, but it was almost worse in the Mets' broadcast booth. The Mets were swept in their doubleheader against the Baltimore Orioles Thursday at Camden Yards, and one of the franchise's retired legends was inches away from joining a couple Mets on the injured list. In the bottom of the seventh in game two of the doubleheader, O's outfielder Cedric Mullins hit a foul ball straight back and toward the SportsNet New York (SNY) booth. Play-by-play announcer Gary Cohen said the ball "went right past Keith [Hernandez]'s ear, and he never saw it." Cohen was not lying. Hernandez is one of the greatest defensive first basemen of all time with 11 Gold Gloves. Naturally, the O's broadcast team thought he had caught the ball. But SNY showed a replay from inside the booth, and while Cohen geared up to potentially catch it, Hernandez's eyes were nowhere near the ball. The replay showed Hernandez looking back down and only reacting to the noise of the ball hitting the wall behind him. And hilarity ensued in the booth. "We can laugh about it now. But if that ball had been just a few feet to the left, you could have been done for the season. Or maybe forever," Cohen said. The Mets led 1-0 entering the eighth inning of the first game, but the bullpen could not hold the lead. Baltimore won the second game, 7-3, despite a 2-0 deficit in the first inning. New York is 8-17 in its last 25 games and has squandered a 5½-game lead in the NL East. The Mets trailed the Philadelphia Phillies by 1½ games entering play Friday.

Bizarre erection medicine ad-read sparks hilarious exchange between Mets announcers
New York Mets announcer Gary Cohen is known for his flawless delivery, whether he's calling game action or reading an advertisement for chewable erectile disfunction medicine. The trick, as he revealed to broadcast partner Keith Hernandez on Saturday, is not thinking too hard. Case in point: Cohen was reading a few spots during the Mets' 8-2 win over the visiting Colorado Rockies on Saturday when he came across one for BlueChew. '… By BlueChew,' Cohen said, adding the company tag line: 'Chew it and do it.' Hernandez, the color commentator and beloved former Mets first baseman, couldn't help but ask: 'What did you mean by that?' Cohen didn't struggle for an answer. Gary Cohen: "By BlueChew. Chew it and do it." Keith Hernandez: "What did you mean by that?" Gary Cohen: "I just read the copy here. I try to give it a good read. Try and give the advertiser everything that they paid for, Keith. And then it's somebody else's problem." #MLB — Awful Announcing (@awfulannouncing) May 31, 2025 'I just read the copy here,' Cohen calmly told Hernandez. 'I try to give it a good read. Try and give the advertiser everything that they paid for, Keith. And then it's somebody else's problem.' The exchange provided fans with a few laughs, given that BlueChew is an ED medication. So while 'chew it and do it' is a rather straightforward tag line, Cohen somehow managed to keep his dignity in the face of Hernandez's prodding with the help of some willful ignorance. 'I did read it well, didn't I?' Cohen asked. 'Oh, you're a champ,' Hernandez responded without giving away anything. 'You're a pro.' In addition to their collective laughter, Mets fans responded to the exchange by reasserting their opinion that Cohen, Hernandez and Ron Darling remain the best announcers in baseball. 'The Mets have the best booth and it's not even close,' one fan wrote on X. Another added: 'I don't know how I will ever survive without these guys at the booth. They have truly left the most largest of shoes to ever fill. It doesn't get better than these guys. They defined my childhood they have been with me my whole life.'

Keith Hernandez had no idea how to react to ED medication ad read: ‘What did you mean by that?'
Mets announcer Gary Cohen does plenty of in-game ad reads, but this one left Keith Hernandez beyond confused. Ahead of the top of the eighth inning in Saturday's Mets win over the Rockies that aired on WPIX, Cohen did an ad read for BlueChew, a medication for erectile dysfunction, in which he told viewers to 'chew it and do it.' Hernandez was left perplexed by Cohen's statement, asking him the meaning behind it after a brief pause. Advertisement Gary Cohen: "By BlueChew. Chew it and do it." Keith Hernandez: "What did you mean by that?" Gary Cohen: "I just read the copy here. I try to give it a good read. Try and give the advertiser everything that they paid for, Keith. And then it's somebody else's problem." #MLB — Awful Announcing (@awfulannouncing) May 31, 2025 'What did you mean by that?' Hernandez said. Cohen responded by saying he was simply reading what was given to him. Advertisement 'I just read the copy here,' Cohen replied once the eighth inning began. 'I try to give it a good read. Try and give the advertiser everything that they paid for, Keith. And then it's somebody else's problem.' Gary Cohen, Ron Darling and Keith Hernandez celebrate 20 years on SNY. SNY The Mets' broadcast crew, which consists of Cohen, Hernandez and Ron Darling and mostly calls games on SNY, is known for its comical moments throughout games, with the trio already having multiple instances similar to this already this season. Earlier this month, the booth berated the umpires during a game against the Diamondbacks after a few questionable calls. Advertisement During the ninth inning of the 4-2 loss on May 1, Mets reliever Ty Adcock threw a pitch that clearly hit the bat of Arizona third baseman Eugenio Suarez and landed in catcher Luis Torrens' glove, but umpire John Bacon called the pitch a ball, which left the announcers mortified. Francisco Lindor celebrates with teammates after the final out of the Mets' 8-2 win over the Rockies on May 31, 2025. Corey Sipkin for the NY POST 'John Bacon does not seem to know the difference between a ball hitting a bat and a bat hitting a glove,' Cohen said. 'That was clear a foul tip for strike three. … I mean, what's going on, Keith?' 'Two series in a row just el stinko,' Hernandez replied.
