Howard Eskin, a renowned figure in Philadelphia sports media, has been banned from Citizens Bank Park for the rest of the season after an investigation into an unwanted advance towards a female Aramark employee in May. The 73-year-old broadcaster, who works for Sports Radio WIP’s parent company Audacy, is said to have made an unwanted kiss towards the woman, prompting Audacy to launch an investigation into the matter.
The incident took place at the exclusive CP Rankin Club at Citizens Bank Park, where Eskin allegedly attempted to kiss the woman as she resisted. Despite this ban from Citizens Bank Park, sources indicate that Eskin will continue to host his shows on WIP. He currently hosts a two-hour Saturday show and made a recent appearance on the Tuesday midday show. The Phillies have publicly supported Audacy’s decision to suspend Eskin from the park, ensuring that his actions are being taken seriously.
