Media: SNY’s Phone, Wagner, Mike likes Inge
During Tuesday’s broadcast, SNY’s Kevin Burkhardt and Keith Hernandez took live phone calls from fans between the sixth and seventh inning.
…during which, keith slugged down a soda and ate a sandwich…on camera…priceless…this live call-in segment is interesting…i’d be lying if i said it was anything short of awkward, at first, but i am eager to see how it will play during games when we can all call keith to get his take on a specific play that may have occurred only a few moments before the call…obviously, SNY will not take calls during play, nor between every inning…it will be once in a while, and depending on the content of the call i believe this could actually be useful and insightful…

Speaking of media, according to the Daily News, Billy Wagner will appear as a once-a-week guest during the The Michael Kay Show.
…per…fect…lo duca, who…WFAN, what…at any rate, wagner will fit right in…wagner should do these interviews standing up, making it more difficult for him to put his foot in his mouth…
…by the way, i hope this puts the Mets one step closer to ditching WFAN, since their contract with the station is up after this season…i’d welcome a move to ESPN 1050…
Speaking of WFAN, check out the following clip from his show on March 7, during which he states, “I like Barndon Inge, a lot,” 13 times in two and a half minutes.
…wait, you mean francesa repeats himself…no kidding…i hadn’t noticed that…heh, imagine that…
