LIer Jake Eisenberg to fill in for Howie Rose on Mets radio
Rose will skip up to 30 games this season, mostly road games in the West, after having undergone major surgery last summer and missing the last month of the 2021 season.
The Mets were looking for a young announcer to fill in and tabbed Eisenberg, a 2017 University of Maryland graduate who also is a graduate of Paul D. Schreiber High School in Port Washington. The New York Post first reported the hiring of Eisenberg, who currently is the play-by-play announcer for Triple-A Omaha, the Royals' top affiliate.
Neil Best first worked at Newsday in 1982, returned in 1985 after a detour to Alaska and has been here since, specializing in high schools, college basketball, the NFL and most recently sports media and business.
