00:00And I have two emotions as a Met fan.
00:02I'm very happy for Howie.
00:04He has had a remarkable career, and you always get to say,
00:09I'm done doing this, but I am going to miss him.
00:12And as I was reading all of this, I was getting a little emotional
00:15because he is the voice of a franchise we love, a lot of us love.
00:22He has painted the word picture, as Bob Murphy so eloquently used to say,
00:26on so many incredible moments, and they're already jumping out at me,
00:30whether it's Johan's no-hitter or it's Pete's home run from a few years ago.
00:34Yes, I'm allowed to say Pete Alonso's name.
00:37On this occasion, you are.
00:38My personal favorite, the moment he called the final out of the Mets
00:42beating the Dodgers in 2015, that was actually my favorite.
00:45So this is bittersweet.
00:47I'm going to miss the hell out of Howie Rose,
00:49but deepest congratulations to him on what has been a brilliant career.
00:53This season will be his final year calling New York Mets games.
