Evan Roberts

There's nothing to worry about.

uh good for him in his retirement and hopefully he can get a mic on top of city field like a murphy and kind of dude i think that's a no-brainer and i would almost expect it now i don't know if that's going to happen on opening day or if that's going to happen when the regular season ends or if that's something you wait for since how he's going to be around doing other things with the team but that's a no-brainer gary kona too when he decides to hang it up those are icons and they're already in the mets hall of fame so they're certainly on their way owls and queens hey al hey uh

Oh, they're in the, I was about to say the Savannah Bananas are like the globetrotters of baseball.

Right.

So they're involved.

Very, very cool.

Very, very cool.

Look, I'm going to go into the archives over the next few days and weeks in ways to honor Howie.

He was a great talk show host here.

We spent a lot of time talking about the Mets and the Rangers and the Islanders, but he was here, and he took calls from a man named Joe in Saddle River, as you may recall.

So Howie was a great part of this station's history, and it is my mission to find legendary clips to honor him over the next few weeks.

We'll get back to your calls coming up, 888-808-1019.

He will be retiring from the Mets broadcast booth.

He'll remain with the team doing special events.

And we are honored to be joined by the voice, the forever voice of the New York Mets, the great Howie Rose.

Howie, first of all, congratulations and thanks for coming on.

There's two emotions I think the Mets fans are going to have.

One is pure selfishness.

We're going to miss you.

I'm sad.
