Legendary New York Mets Announcer Gary Cohen Previews Upcoming Season with Mets Fans at Ridgefield Library on Saturday, January 26 from 2 to  3:30 pm (seating begins at 1pm). Tickets available on Monday, December 10 by clicking here.

Award-winning New York Mets play-by-play announcer Gary Cohen returns to the Ridgefield Library on January 26 for the Library's 2019 installment of its popular Hot Stove League program.

Gary will entertain questions from the audience, share anecdotes from his 30 years broadcasting the Mets and provide his take on the upcoming Major League Baseball season. He was recently inducted into the New York State Baseball Hall of Fame alongside his broadcasting partner and former Mets player Keith Hernandez. The Hot Stove League event sold out quickly when Gary last appeared at the Library during the 2017 off-season.

All proceeds will benefit the Annual Operating Fund of the Ridgefield Library.   

In conjunction with the Hot Stove event, Library patrons and Mets fans have opportunities to bid on exclusive game packages and game memorabilia:

  • An auction of four (4) field-level tickets to a June 2019 Mets game at Citi Field, including four on-field passes to watch batting practice and a rare visit to the Ralph Kiner Broadcast Booth at the stadium. Bids can be made in person at the Library through January 26. The winning bid will be announced at the end of the Hot Stove program. Attendance is not required. (Package is courtesy of SportsNet New York - SNY, the Home for All Things New York Sports.)
  • An auction of four (4) seats in the Citi Pavilion (section 143) for the Saturday, April 27 game between the Mets and the Milwaukee Brewers, including four on-field passes to watch batting practice and complimentary beer, soda and snacks.
