Tom McCarthy is ‘beyond excited’ to work with Jimmy Rollins in Phillies broadcast booth

When the Philadelphia Phillies arrive at Citi Field Monday for the opening game of a three-game set with the New York Mets, they’ll have a special guest waiting to call their game.

Jimmy Rollins – the organization’s all-time hits leader and current special advisor – will join Tom McCarthy, John Kruk and Gregg Murphy in the broadcast booth for NBC Sports Philadelphia‘s coverage of the Phillies-Mets matchup Monday.

“Jimmy is not only one of my favorite people, but one of the best players I have ever had the chance to cover,” McCarthy told PhilliesNation.com Sunday evening.
