Former Orioles announcer Gary Thorne returns to the broadcast booth as fill-in with Mets

Thorne, who served as the Orioles’ primary play-by-play broadcaster on the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network from 2007 to 2019, is broadcasting the New York Mets’ series in Pittsburgh this weekend for SNY alongside Keith Hernandez as a fill-in for regular play-by-play man Gary Cohen.

“The other Gary, Gary Cohen, has a well-deserved weekend off, so in light of that, I get the honor of working with a pal over many years, Keith Hernandez, coming off the IL himself,” Thorne said at the top of Friday night’s broadcast.

Gary Cohen has the weekend off and we have another Gary subbing in - Gary Thorne!
