NEW YORK -- The Mets have hired two new public address announcers for Citi Field, including the first woman to hold the job and a grandson of late ABC broadcaster Howard Cosell.
Marysol Castro will start with Thursday night's homestand opener against the Chicago Cubs, and Colin Cosell will debut Saturday night.
Alex Anthony was the announcer from 2002 to 2017, making the move with the team from Shea Stadium to Citi Field. He was replaced on an interim basis at the start of this season by Rob Rush, who is also the announcer for the G League's Long Island Nets.
