With Matt Stairs moving from the broadcast booth to the dugout the Phillies and Comcast SportsNet needed to make another change to the television crew.
As rumored for months, former ESPN baseball analyst and Phillies Wall of Famer John Kruk will join Tom McCarthy in the booth. Kruk will split time as the color analyst with Ben Davis, who returns for his second season in the booth.
Hall of Famer Mike Schmidt will also return to bring some color to the home weekend series, and Gregg Murphy will return as the “man in the stands.”
“I am looking forward to working with Tom, Mike, Ben and Gregg,” Kruk said in a statement.
