Taryn Hatcher OUT as Phillies sideline reporter over reported contract dispute
Philadelphia Phillies sideline reporter Taryn Hatcher is officially out at NBC Sports Philadelphia this season.
After eight years covering all four major teams for the network, her run comes to an end, most notably as part of the Phillies broadcast trio alongside John Kruk and Tom McCarthy.
Taryn Hatcher OUT as Phillies sideline reporter
There were rumblings about a contract dispute after the 2025 season wrapped up, and it looks like she’s been off the team ever since.
Tough blow for the Phils, who keep losing people in and around the building. Nick Castellanos is now in San Diego, Harrison Bader is in San Francisco, and now Taryn Hatcher is out too. She’s arguably the team’s biggest loss of the offseason, right?
News of Hatcher’s departure also came alongside the announcement of Jim Salisbury’s return. He’ll be back as a “Digital Writer” for the club, though it’s unclear how much, if any, airtime that actually comes with.




The Phillies do not have a problem at cleanup. They have a manager problem. Crawford CF, Turner SS, Harper 1B, Schwarber DH and fill in the rest of the lineup. Stott #9 batter, then Crawford and Turner will give a healthy Harper and Schwarber 100+ RBI seasons. Thomson hitting Harper 2nd behind Turner leading off will lead to less RBIs for Harper again. Harper is elite and injuries and Thomson has finished his RBIs!
She was totally annoying and only interrupted the game.
It’s too bad about Tarn Hatcher thought she did a good job
