Bobby Dickerson to return for second stint as Phillies infield coach, per report

Another vacant role on manager Joe Girardi’s staff is reportedly set to be filled.

Bobby Dickerson will be returning to Philadelphia for a second stint as Phillies major-league infield coach, according to a report by Bob Nightengale of USA Today.

Dickerson, 58, held the same position for the Phillies in 2019 under former manager Gabe Kapler. He then spent the past two seasons as San Diego Padres bench coach — also serving as third-base coach in 2021 — under manager Jayce Tingler, who was fired after a disappointing season in which the star-studded Padres missed the postseason.
