Back in 2011, comedian Kyle Mooney was building his brand of awkward comedy via YouTube. He became known for painful “man on the street”-type interviews. His success with his video series eventually got him onto Saturday Night Live.

For one of these interview videos, he went behind the scenes at AT&T Park and tried to interview fans, field staff, and players. I say try because that’s the bit — he’s playing an audio/video enthusiast doing his best yet failing (hilariously in some cases, painfully in others). We here at McCovey Chronicles can easily empathize.

Many of you have likely seen this before or maybe you’re like me and had seen it but forgot you had, in which case, this will be like opening a time capsule.
