Philadelphia sports radio host Howard Eskins has been suspended from Citizen’s Bank Park for the rest of the Phillies season after an incident where he allegedly gave an “unwelcome kiss” to an Aramark employee, as reported by Audacy. Eskins, 73, hosts a show on 94 WIP sports radio, which is owned by Audacy.

According to a statement from Audacy, they were made aware of the incident involving Eskins and took immediate action to address the matter. The incident reportedly occurred in May and was investigated by Audacy, Aramark, and the Phillies.

In a statement from the Phillies, they expressed their support for Audacy’s decision to suspend Eskins from the stadium, stating that the safety of their employees is paramount. Aramark also confirmed the incident and expressed their commitment to the safety of their staff.

Eskins has been a prominent figure in the Philadelphia sports scene since the 1980s, working in both radio and television. He has been with WIP since 1986 and will continue to host his regular Saturday morning radio show during his suspension from Citizen’s Bank Park. NBC10 attempted to contact Eskins for comment but has not received a response at this time.
