Episode Details

Tom McCarthy’s off calling Phillies games this weekend—heading to Jacksonville for CBS’s Browns vs. Jaguars NFL showdown, his 13th year in NFL play-by-play. That means Scott Franzke steps into the TV booth for the crucial Phillies-Braves series, a pivotal stretch as Philly chases the Braves in the NL East. McCarthy’s absence isn’t unusual this year thanks to a later NFL start, and he’s been quiet on X amid negativity, preferring Instagram for baseball and golf chats. Though not scheduled for any Eagles games this season, he’d love the chance—and goes where he’s assigned. With Franzke, a 21-year veteran of the Phillies broadcast team, and John Kruk filling in, fans get a familiar voice with a new face behind the mic.
