PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- The Philadelphia Phillies say Pete Mackanin will stay as their manager for the rest of the season.
General manager Ruben Amaro made the announcement Tuesday.
Mackanin took over on an interim basis last Friday after manager Ryne Sandberg resigned.
At 27-51, the Phillies had the worst record in the majors going into Tuesday night's home game against Milwaukee.
This is Mackanin's third stint as an interim manager after working in a similar role previously with the Reds and Pirates.
The Phillies also added Jorge Velandia to their coaching staff.
