Jim Breuer does Joe Pesci announcing Mets game

Comedian Jim Breuer was a Saturday Night Live cast member from 1995 to 1998 and during that time established a reputation for being able to do dead-on impersonations of the biggest stars of the day.

This week, Breuer visited MLB Network’s Studio 21 where the hosts invited the native New Yorker and big Mets fan to call memorable plays from the franchise’s history. Listen in as Breuer impersonates Ozzy Osbourne, Robert DeNiro and Joe Pesci getting worked up over the Mets.

MAKING THE ROUNDS

Breuer who’s making the rounds to promote his comedy special Comic Frenzy, stopped by The Dan Patrick Show earlier in the month. Among other stories, he shared that his family’s dog was named after Mookie Wilson — the Mets outfielder best remembered for hitting the ground ball that went through Bill Buckner’s legs in the tenth inning of Game Six of the 1986 World Series.

Breuer also revealed he will be throwing out the first pitch for the Mets tonight at Citi Field, before Matt Harvey takes the mound against the Miami Marlins.
