SNY announcer Gary Cohen goes viral for hilarious fed-up reaction at New York Mets when he thought he was off-camera during a rain delay: ‘He does NOT want to be at Citi Field tonight!’

Maybe it was the two-hour rain delay, the New York Mets‘ 0-4 start, or an awkward, lingering camera shot by the SNY crew, but award-winning broadcaster Gary Cohen was clearly in no mood to be at Citi Field on Tuesday night in Queens.

Seated alongside former Mets first baseman, 1979 National League MVP and fellow announcer Keith Hernandez, Cohen was instructing his audience to go get some food as umpires decided whether or not to postpone Tuesday’s game against the visiting Detroit Tigers.

‘Get the snacks that you can and try and keep nourished,’ Cohen said awkwardly as he tried to fill the vacuous airtime resulting from the rain delay.

Both Cohen and Hernandez then sat with frozen expressions on their faces as the SNY cameras remained fixed on their gaze. The smirking Cohen shot a few glances off-screen, presumably to see when he was off screen.

Unfortunately for Cohen, he was still very much on screen when his smile dropped, revealing an exhausted, frustrated and exasperated expression, much to the delight of Hernandez and Mets fans back at home.

‘The Mets will do that to you,’ one fan wrote on X.

‘I love it!’ added another. ‘He’s one of us.’

One fan tied Cohen’s reaction to the team’s woeful start: ‘Going to be a looooooong season.’

The game was ultimately postponed until Thursday.

Right-hander Adrian Houser, acquired from Milwaukee in a December trade, was set to make his Mets debut Tuesday and instead was pushed back to Wednesday night as well.

Showers fell all day in New York City, and the tarp was never removed from the Citi Field infield. With steady rain in the forecast Wednesday that could put that night’s game in jeopardy also, the teams waited almost two hours before Tuesday night’s game was called.

‘We can’t control the weather. So, in an ideal world we get the games in when we’re supposed to get the games in,’ Hinch said about four hours before the postponement. ‘I think the biggest, most important thing is to not waste pitching.’

Under Carlos Mendoza, the Mets are 0-4 for the first time since losing their first five in 2005

Detroit is 4-0 for its best start since opening with six wins in 2015. All four victories have come on the road — two in extra innings and the first three (against the Chicago White Sox) by one run.

Under new manager Carlos Mendoza, the Mets are 0-4 for the first time since losing their first five games in 2005. They also had a rookie manager that season: Willie Randolph.

‘You hate to go through it. You hate to see it, especially the way we’ve been playing. They know. They know we’re better than that,’ Mendoza said. ‘But at the same time, it’s not the first time that they’ve gone through it. It just happens to be the first four games of the season. And everything that we went through over the weekend, not the way we expected it. But again, pretty confident with the guys that we’ve got in that room, we’ll turn it around pretty soon here.’

New York was rained out for the second time already this season, after last week’s opener against Milwaukee was pushed back a day until Friday.
