Baseball analyst Steve Phillips was fired by ESPN on Sunday night, less than a week after he admitted having an affair with a “delusional” production assistant at the network.

Phillips, 46, joined ESPN in 2004 and this year was promoted to provide commentary on the network’s Sunday Night Baseball broadcast. On Thursday, Phillips announced that he was taking a leave of absence from the network following reports that he had become romantically involved with ESPN production assistant Brooke Hundley, who recently began stalking Phillips’ family.

“Despite the fact that she has been spoken to by a police detective, I have extreme concerns about the health and safety of my wife, my kids and myself,” Phillips said.

A spokesperson for ESPN released the following statement to The Insider on Sunday night: “[Phillips'] ability to be an effective representative for ESPN has been significantly and irreparably damaged, and it became evident it was time to part ways.”

After the July affair ended, Brooke repeatedly called and followed Steve’s wife, Marni, and also left her a letter describing intimate locations of Phillips’ birthmarks. She also allegedly stalked his teenage son on Facebook, asking him about his parents’ love life. Marni Phillips filed for divorce on Sept. 14.

A rep for the former New York Mets General Manager has announced that the baseball analyst is entering a treatment facility following reports that he had an affair with Hundley. In 1998, Phillips sparked a massive lawsuit against the Mets after having another affair with team employee, Rosa Rodriguez.
