Faith and Fear in Flushing’s review of Josh Lewin

I haven’t had a chance to listen to Josh yet but the words of Greg Price are never to be taken lightly.

Josh, we’ve learned, grew up a Mets fan way the hell upstate, choosing Willie Montañez as his favorite hitter, Nino Espinosa as his favorite pitcher and Nino’s afro as his favorite hairstyle. If we didn’t know that about Lewin before Monday night, it was there to pick up on throughout that maiden broadcast.

It was only a few innings of a spring game, so nothing was at stake, but geez he and Howie sounded at ease, and when you get right down to it, that’s what I want. I want two guys with whom I relish spending an evening; the business of home run calls and hit-and-run analysis tends to take care of itself.

When Jessica Treasurer at the foundation asked if I wanted to see Gary’s office I was a little weary about it. I didn’t want to overstep any lines since having my camera, but she assured me it was fine. I took a few minutes to check out all the amazing pieces he chose to hang in his personal space. With the exception of the black and white drawing; every photo you see in the above thumbnails were a part of his office.
