Chase Utley Took Angry Calls From Mets Fans on WFAN This Morning

Bob Wankel | May 1, 2019

Chase Utley, The Man, went on WFAN’s Boomer and Gio show this morning. Things went as you would probably expect, with bitter and misguided Mets fans calling in to voice their distaste for him.

I must say, that’s radio gold.

The highlight of his appearance came during a call by Cali from Connecticut. Cali enjoys Utley’s work with dogs but doesn’t seem to enjoy his past work with Ruben Tejada’s leg during the 2015 NLDS.

Most people would probably get all worked up over such vitriol. Not Chase. Calm, cool, and collected. Check out this coffee sip at the 49-second mark. A total study in nonchalance:

“Thank you, sweetheart.”

Yikes.

This might actually be my new play while reading the comments section. If you’re interested, you can listen to Utley’s full WFAN appearance right here:
