I’m not talking about any duo of stud pitchers from the New York Mets. I’m not talking about Carmelo Anthony, or the Lopez twins. I’m definitely not talking about Alex Rodriguez and Mark Teixeira.

I’m talking about Gary Cohen and Howie Rose.

Both are the radio and television play-by-play announcers for this beloved Metropolitan team.

And, they’ve done a helluva job.

Here are their best calls in the past 20 years:
