Keith Hernandez will be returning to the Mets booth on a three-year contract.
The band will stay together.
Keith Hernandez has re-signed with SNY to remain in the TV booth on a three-year deal.
WFAN’s Boomer Esiason first reported the news of the deal and The New York Post’s Mike Puma had the years.
This will be the 18th season that Hernandez, Gary Cohen and Ron Darling are together in the booth. This is the longest run in Mets history, as they will top the 17 years that Lindsey Nelson, Ralph Kiner and Bob Murphy spent together.
Hernandez, 69, missed out of the Mets’ stretch run and playoff push last September due to a shoulder injury that required surgery. The expectation is that he will be fully recovered for the 2023 season.
The Mets retired Hernandez’s No. 17 on July 9 of last season. He became the organization’s sixth player or manager to receive this honor.
The former star first baseman played for the Mets from 1983-1989, helping them win the 1986 World Series.
