New York Yankees play-by-play announcer Michael Kay was not pleased when his ESPN radio show ran an ad calling the Mets' broadcast team the 'best' in baseball.
The Subway Series rivalry has extended to the broadcast teams. The New York Yankees and Mets are finishing up a two-game set at Citi Field Wednesday, and it's the hottest ticket in New York. The rivalry officially began in 1997, when interleague play started, and the two teams faced off in 2000, bringing it to a new level.
Two years after that, the YES Network was born, while SNY became the broadcast home of the Mets when it was founded in 2006. The SNY baseball booth of Gary Cohen, Ron Darling and Keith Hernandez is widely regarded as one of the best in the sport, and they advertise it that way. Kay disagrees. 'I think our booth is the best booth in baseball. … I’ll take O’Neill, Cone and me over Gar, Ron and Keith. I would. I mean, they’re great, but so is our booth.
