Mandatory Credit: Rafael Suanes-Imagn Images The Philadelphia Phillies have extended manager Rob Thomson through the 2026 season, president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski announced Tuesday.
Dombrowski also said the Phillies' entire coaching staff will return next season.
The moves come six days after Philadelphia unceremoniously was eliminated in four games to the division-rival New York Mets in the National League Division Series.
Thomson, 61, guided the Phillies to a 95-67 record this season and their first NL East title since 2011. He is 250-185 over parts of three seasons at the helm in the City of Brotherly Love.
Under Thomson's watch, the Phillies won the NL pennant in 2022 before falling in six games to the Houston Astros in the World Series. Philadelphia fell to the Arizona Diamondbacks in seven games during the 2023 NL Championship Series.
