baseball analyst

ESPN baseball analyst Steve Phillips admits having an affair with an assistant at the cable network who taunted his wife with phone calls and a letter graphically describing their relationship, the New York Post reported Wednesday.

Bobby Valentine is returning to ESPN as an analyst on "Baseball Tonight" for the league championship series and World Series.

Former major league pitcher Rick Sutcliffe has been diagnosed with colon cancer.

A routine test during a physical revealed that Sutcliffe has a treatable and curable form of the disease.

He will undergo chemotherapy and surgery over the next few months and is hoping to make a healthy comeback to his position as an ESPN baseball analyst later this year.
