In 1984, Matthews was a Cubs star when the team lost three straight games in the NLCS and missed going the World Series. In 2003, he was the Cubs' hitting coach when they again lost three in a row in the NLCS and missed a chance to reach the World Series. (AP Photo/Ben Walker)

Longtime Philadelphia Phillies broadcaster Chris Wheeler is out after nearly four decades in the booth and Gary Matthews isn't returning as color analyst. The team recently signed a new television contract with NBCUniversal and Comcast SportsNet that's reportedly worth $2.5 billion over 25 years. The decision to replace Wheeler and Matthews came from the network, multiple sources told The Associated Press on Wednesday, Jan. 8, 2014, on condition of anonymity because it hadn't commented on the matter.
