Mike Francesa in Mets radio booth on Wednesday

I would really respect Howie even more were he to wake up with “food poisoning” and miss the game.

Are the Mets insane? Why not have Joe Torre do the game with Chipper Jones and Jack Clark?

Afternoon host Mike Francesa is heading to Citi Field for tomorrow’s final game of the Mets season. Francesa will join Howie Rose and Wayne Hagin in the WFAN broadcast booth starting in the fifth inning. First pitch between the Mets and Reds is at 1:10 p.m.

The experience will be interactive, as listeners can tweet questions to Francesa, Rose, and Hagin at @MetsWFAN or via email at [email protected].

Well, at least I’ll finally appreciate Wayne.
