Howard Eskin Barred from Citizens Bank Park

Longtime Philadelphia Sports Broadcaster Suspended

WEB Howard Eskin, an American sports commentator and host for sports radio station WIP-FM 941, has been barred from Citizens Bank Park through the end of the Philadelphia Phillies season.

The suspension is reportedly due to an incident that occurred during a Phillies game on August 6, 2023. According to witnesses, Eskin got into an altercation with a fan in the stands.

Eskin has been a fixture in Philadelphia sports broadcasting for decades. He is a former host of "The Howard Eskin Show" on 94 WIP and currently hosts "The Best of Howard Eskin" on the station.

Conclusion

Eskin's suspension is a reminder that even the most seasoned broadcasters are not immune to controversy. It is unclear whether Eskin will be allowed to return to Citizens Bank Park next season, but his absence will undoubtedly be felt by Phillies fans.
