Following Paul Goldschmidt homering Cam Schlittler dominating helping New York the team that wears the pinstripes win 1-0 Friday night at Philadelphia Paul Goldschmidt who provided the only run in New York’s 1-0 shared his thoughts on Cam Schlittler by saying f he continues this, he might win the Cy Young, and that’s great,”“But I’m really excited to see how he progresses, because when you’re at the highest level, you’re thinking about guys who are doing it for 10-plus years. I think Cam definitely has the mindset and physical tools to do it.

“There’s been a lot of these games where unfortunately our offense hasn’t performed, especially this past month. When one swing of the bat can change the game, to just attack like that, I would say that’s probably what has impressed me the most.”

Though,

Paul Goldschmidt wasn’t the only one to share his thoughts on Cam Schlittler’s start as current Philadelphia manager Don Mattingly who was drafted by New York the team that wears the pinstripes as the 19th pick in 1979 MLB Draft out Reitz Memorial High School in Evansville Indiana according to https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/m/mattido01.shtml did as well by saying “He bullies you a little bit with the fastball on both sides,”“I don’t think this guy’s getting hit hard very often.” as well as Philadelphia catcher J.T. Realmuto did as well describing Cam Schlittler ‘s fast ball saying “It's just really good,”I think it has good late life. I only saw [two] two-seams, but the four-seam has a lot of carry, so guys swing under it a lot. The way he releases it, he almost kind of lulls you to sleep with his windup. And then it's 100, and it almost plays harder than it even is."

ow in his 26th season in the big leagues, Tom McCarthy is in the 19th year of his second tour of duty with the Phillies doing television play-by-play. In his firrst stint with the club, he spent five seasons (2001-05) as the host of the pre- and postgame radio shows, while also doing radio play-by-play. He also hosted his own weekday afternoon-drive show on ESPN Radio 920 AM, which concentrated on local sports. He spent the 2006-07 seasons as a radio broadcaster with the New York Mets on WFAN before returning to the Phillies in November 2007.

Tom spent six seasons with the Trenton Thunder, the former double-A affiliate of the Boston Red Sox. He was hired as director of public and media relations in 1993 and promoted to assistant general manager in 1996, while also working as one of the team’s broadcasters, doing play-by-play on radio and television for CN8.

After the 1999 season, Tom left the Thunder to pursue a full-time career in broadcasting, creating the first local-driven show on ESPN Radio 1680 AM. He also used to work national shows for ESPN Radio.

Tom has done extensive broadcasting for collegiate sports in his career. He currently does NFL games for CBS, basketball and college football play-by-play for CBS College Sports Network (formerly CSTV) and NFL and college basketball games for Westwood One, after three years of doing NFL games with Sports USA Radio.

In March 2022, Tom received the Bob Vetrone Award, which recognizes those whose service, professionalism and commitment have made a lasting contribution to the student-athletes and institutions of the Atlantic 10 Conference.

Born in Jersey City, N.J., Tom graduated from The College of New Jersey with a BA degree in communications and now serves as a member of the board of trustees for his alma mater. He and his wife Meg live in Allentown, N.J., and have four children: two sons, Patrick and Tommy, and two daughters, Maggie and Kerri. Patrick, a broadcaster for the New York Mets, filled in for his dad for a few games in 2021-22 when he was with triple-A Lehigh Valley.

One of the most popular and colorful players in Phillies history, John Kruk rejoined the club’s broadcast team in January 2017. He had previously been a color analyst for the team in 2003, the final season at Veterans Stadium.

Prior to rejoining the Phillies broadcast team, John spent 13 years with ESPN as both a color commentator on “Sunday Night Baseball” and a studio analyst for “Baseball Tonight.” He also worked for FOX and co-hosted “The Best Damn Sports Show Period.” In 2001, he was a hitting coach for the Phillies’ double-A team in Reading, Pa., before transitioning to a role assisting the club with suite sales for Citizens Bank Park. John also acted in several films, including the baseball-themed movie, The Fan, starring Robert DeNiro and Wesley Snipes.

John played 10 years in the major leagues, six of them with the Phillies, and was a member of the 1993 National League championship team when he posted career bests with a .316 batting average and a .430 on-base percentage. He made three consecutive All-Star teams (1991-93) as a Phillie, which included a memorable at-bat against future Hall of Famer Randy Johnson at the 1993 Midsummer Classic.

The San Diego Padres selected John in the third round of the 1981 draft. At the major league level, he played for the Padres (1986-89), Phillies (1989-94) and Chicago White Sox (1995). John finished his playing career with a .300 batting average, .397 on-base percentage, 199 doubles, 100 home runs and 592 RBI in 1,200 games.

In 2003, John was selected to the All-Vet Team, which honored the best Phillies to play each position at Veterans Stadium, and he was inducted into the Phillies Wall of Fame in 2011.

John and his wife Melissa live in Naples, Fla., with their son Kyle and daughter Keira.

en Davis enters his 12th season in the booth after joining the Phillies broadcast team in February 2015. He is also in his 16th year as an in-studio baseball analyst for NBC Sports Philadelphia’s pre- and postgame shows and makes occasional appearances on 94 WIP's morning show.

A local product, Ben was selected by the San Diego Padres as the second overall pick in the 1995 draft out of Malvern Preparatory School and went on to have a seven-year (1998-2004) major league career with the Padres (1998-2001), Seattle Mariners (2002-04) and Chicago White Sox (2004). Ben converted to pitcher for the final three seasons (2008-10) of his professional career, spent with single-A Sarasota in the Cincinnati Reds organization and the Camden Riversharks of the independent Atlantic League.

Ben currently resides in Chadds Ford, Pa., with his wife Megan and their four children.

Over the past four decades, Ruben Amaro Jr. has held several positions with the Phillies – general manager, assistant general manager, player, bat boy and now color analyst. Ruben joined the broadcast team in 2020 for select Phillies telecasts and had his role expanded for the 2021 season. In addition, he joined MLB Network as an on-air analyst in March 2022 and makes regular appearances on the 94 WIP morning show.

A Philadelphia native, Ruben was a bat boy for the Phillies from 1980-83 when his father, Ruben Sr., a former shortstop with the club, was first base coach. He is a 1983 graduate of the William Penn Charter School, where he played both baseball and soccer. In 1987, he earned a bachelor’s degree in human biology from Stanford University and was a member of the NCAA championship baseball team.

After being selected by the Los Angeles Angels in the 11th round of the 1987 MLB Draft, Ruben made his major league debut with the club in 1991. Following that season, he was traded to his hometown Phillies, where he spent five of his final seven big league seasons (1992-93, 96-98). His only time away was 1994-95, when he played for Cleveland. Ruben played for two league champions – the pennant-winning 1993 Phillies and the 1995 Cleveland club that captured the AL crown. In 1996, he ranked third among National League pinch-hitters with a .387 average.

At the conclusion of the 1998 season, Ruben moved into the Phillies front office as assistant general manager and held that position through 2008 under both Ed Wade and future Hall of Famer Pat Gillick. After the Phillies’ World Series win in 2008, Gillick transitioned into a new role and Ruben succeeded him as GM.

In his first year as GM, the Phillies won the NL pennant, making it to the seventh World Series in club history, and the team’s 93 wins were the most in 16 years (97 wins in 1993). Following the season, Ruben was named Executive of the Year by the Philadelphia Sports Writers Association (PSWA), and the Phillies were honored as the Team of the Year by the PSWA and Organization of the Year by Baseball America. Over a two-year span (2010-11), he constructed a team that had the best records (97-65 and 102-60, respectively) in the major leagues. Prior to 2010, the Phillies had never posted the best record over the course of a major league season.

Ruben left the Phillies toward the end of the 2015 season and spent the next three years as first base coach and outfield instructor for the Boston Red Sox (2016-17) and New York Mets (2018). He worked as a scout for the Mets in 2019. Ruben is the co-founder and ambassador for Sluggball: Baseball Reimagined, president of the Ruben Amaro Sr. Foundation, vice president of the Ashburn-Kalas Foundation and ambassador for the Darren Daulton Foundation.

He lives in Philadelphia with his partner Lori and has two daughters, Andrea and Sophia.

Cole Hamels made his professional broadcasting debut for the Phillies in 2025. In addition to serving as an analyst for spring training and regular season telecasts, the 2008 World Series champion and Most Valuable Player also represents the Phillies as a club ambassador and periodically contributes to the baseball operations department in an on-field capacity.

A first-round selection (17th overall) of the Phillies in the 2002 MLB Draft, Hamels spent 10 of his 15 major league seasons in Philadelphia. The left-hander, who helped deliver the second World Series title in franchise history, finished his Phillies career going 114-90 with a 3.30 ERA and 1,844 strikeouts in 295 games (294 starts). A three-time All-Star in red pinstripes, Hamels ranks third all-time in franchise history in strikeouts, fourth in starts and sixth in wins and innings pitched (1,930.0).

In 2015, his final season as a Phillie, Hamels tossed the 13th no-hitter in club history on July 25 against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field.

Hamels, a native of San Diego, currently resides in the Dallas area with his children and fiancée, Rebekah Graf.

Larry is in his 29th season serving as a color analyst for Phillies games, making him the club’s longest-tenured active broadcaster. He chose to reduce his schedule in 2018 and now calls mostly home games, along with select road series.

Larry began his broadcast career with the Phillies in 1998. He had been offered a position on the Houston Astros’ broadcast team in 1997 when Larry Dierker moved from the booth to become manager but opted instead to become pitching coach for the Phillies’ triple-A affiliate at Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre. In 2008, he and his partner Scott Franzke won for Best Live Sports Event Coverage at the Philadelphia A.I.R. (Achievement in Radio) Awards, the second straight year they won that category. In 2017, the duo was honored with the Bill Campbell Award for excellence in local broadcasting by the Philadelphia Sports Writers Association. Larry was inducted into the Broadcast Pioneers of Philadelphia Hall of Fame in 2024.

A former relief pitcher who played 25 years of professional baseball, including 17 seasons in the major leagues with Cleveland (1975-79), Seattle (1981-82), Houston (1986-90), Boston (1990), San Diego (1991-92) and two stints with the Phillies (1983-86; 93-94), Larry was 40-39 with 49 saves and a 3.15 ERA in 699 career games (1 start). In 1987, he pitched 101.2 innings, all in relief, and in 1989-90, he posted ERAs below 2.00 – 1.54 ERA in 1989 and 1.79 ERA in 1990.

Larry is famously known for being traded from the Astros to the Red Sox for future Hall of Famer Jeff Bagwell in August 1990. He pitched in two World Series with the Phillies in 1983 and 1993, and also appeared in the LCS twice, with Houston in 1986 and Boston in 1990. Larry holds the Phillies’ club record for longest consecutive scoreless streak by a reliever (32.2 IP), set in 1984. It is also the third-longest among all Phillies pitchers, trailing Grover Alexander’s 41.0 scoreless innings in 1911 and Cliff Lee’s 34.0-inning streak in 2011.

After graduating from Interlake High School in Bellevue, Wash., in 1971, he was drafted by Cleveland in the seventh round and made his major league debut with the club in 1975. Following his playing career, Larry spent three seasons as a minor league pitching coach, first with double-A Reading (1995-96) and then Scranton/Wilkes-Barre (1997). He also served as a guest instructor at Phillies spring training for five years (2013-17).

Born in Portland, Ore., Larry has two daughters, Angie and Tania, and one son, Chase. He and his wife Kristi live in Philadelphia.

David Cone, the strikeout artist who endeared himself to New York Yankees fans for his numerous clutch performances and for hurling a perfect game in 1999, initially joined YES as a Yankees analyst in 2002. After pitching for the Mets in 2003 and then retiring from baseball, he re-joined YES as an analyst for the 2008 and 2009 seasons. After a year away from the mic, he came back again to YES in 2011 and has been with the network ever since. Cone has won five New York Emmy Awards while at YES.

Since 2022, Cone has been a game analyst on ESPN’s Sunday Night Baseball telecasts in addition to his YES duties. In 2019, he collaborated on a book with YES colleague Jack Curry called Full Count: The Education of a Pitcher, which was a New York Times best-seller.

Cone compiled a 194-126 record, 3.46 ERA and 2,688 strikeouts in his 17-year Major League career. He captured the American League Cy Young Award in 1994 and was a five-time All-Star (1988, 1992, 1994, 1997 and 1999). The Kansas City, Mo. native, known for coming up big in critical games, posted an 8-3 postseason record and played on five world championship teams: the 1992 Blue Jays and the 1996, 1998, 1999 and 2000 Yankees.

The flame-throwing right-hander was drafted by his hometown Kansas City Royals in the third round of the 1981 amateur draft and made his Major League debut with the Royals in 1986. He played the next five and a half seasons with the Mets; in 1988, he ran up a 20-3 record, 2.22 ERA and 213 strikeouts, and on October 6, 1991, he struck out 19 Phillies in a game.

After short stints with the Blue Jays and the Royals (again), he joined the Yankees in 1995. His finest season in pinstripes was 1998, when he was 20-7 with a 3.55 ERA and 209 strikeouts. A year later, on July 18, 1999, he hurled a perfect game against the Montreal Expos, only the second inter-league perfect game in Major League history. Fellow Yankee Don Larsen’s World Series gem in 1956 was the first.

While with the Yankees from 1995-2000, Cone was 64-40 with a 3.91 ERA and 888 strikeouts. He pitched for Boston in 2001, sat out the 2002 season, and pitched briefly for the Mets in 2003 before retiring.

Paul O’Neill is in his 24th season as a New York Yankees analyst for the YES Network. He has earned five New York Emmy Awards for his work at YES.

O’Neill played Major League Baseball for 17 seasons, from 1985 to 2001. He appeared in six World Series and earned five World Series rings, one with the Cincinnati Reds and four with the New York Yankees. He also played in five All-Star games.

The Yankees honored him on August 21, 2022, by permanently retiring his No. 21 during “Paul O’Neill Day” at Yankee Stadium.

O’Neill began his MLB career in 1985 with the Reds. After eight seasons with Cincinnati, O’Neill joined the Yankees in 1993, with whom he won the American League batting title in 1994 with a .359 average. From July 23, 1995, until May 7, 1997, O’Neill played 235 games in right field without making an error. In 1997, he led the American League in hitting with men on base with a .429 average. On Aug. 25, 2001, O’Neill became the oldest Major Leaguer to steal 20 bases and hit 20 home runs in the same season.

He was inducted into the New York State Baseball Hall of Fame in November 2017. In 2008, O’Neill was named “Father of the Year” by The National Father’s Day Council at its 67th Annual Father of the Year awards dinner in New York.

Former New York Yankees catcher Joe Girardi, who helped lead the Yankees to three World Championships in the 1990s as a player and later guided the team to the 2009 World Championship as a manager, re-joined the YES Network as a Yankees analyst in advance of the 2024 season. He previously had been a Yankees analyst for YES in 2004 and 2007.

In addition to managing the Yankees from 2008 to 2017, Girardi managed the Philadelphia Phillies from the 2020 season until June of 2022, and he also held that role with the Florida Marlins in 2006, with whom Girardi earned the National League Manager of the Year Award. Girardi also was the Yankees’ bench coach under manager Joe Torre during the 2005 season.

From 2022-24, Girardi served as a Chicago Cubs analyst on the Marquee Sports Network. Previously, he was an analyst with the MLB Network in 2018 and 2019. In addition, he was an analyst during the 2003 National League Division Series for ESPN Radio and provided the 2007 World Series pre-game analysis for FOX Sports.

In addition to his analyst work during his previous stints at YES, he won a New York Emmy Award for his hosting efforts on the network’s Kids on Deck series and was the star of The Joe Girardi Show.

A Peoria, Ill. Native, Girardi graduated from Spalding (Ill.) Institute in 1982 after earning All-State honors in baseball. He then played at Northwestern University, where he was a two-time All-Big Ten selection and three-time Academic All-American. He received his bachelor’s degree in industrial engineering from Northwestern in 1986.

He was drafted by the Cubs in the fifth round of the 1986 amateur draft. He broke into the majors in 1989 with the Cubs and later played three seasons for the Colorado Rockies (1993-1995). Girardi was acquired by the Yankees prior to the 1996 season and played key roles as New York won the World Series in 1996, 1998 and 1999.

One month after departing the Yankees as a free agent in November 1999, Girardi signed with the Cubs and played three additional seasons for Chicago, making the National League All-Star team in 2000.

He played one season for the St. Louis Cardinals in 2003 before signing with the Yankees as a free agent in February 2004. Girardi retired at the end of spring training, then joined YES.
