Longtime Pittsburgh Pirates Announcer Loses Job

After more than a decade behind the microphone, a longtime Pittsburgh Pirates announcer is out of a job.

PITTSBURGH, PA — Robby Incmikoski is out after 11 seasons as the in-game, pre- and post-game reporter during Pirates broadcasts. Multiple media outlets reported the news Thursday, which comes a day after the Pirates announced they had partnered with the Penguins to broadcast games on SportsNet Pittsburgh beginning Jan. 1.

There was no immediate word on who will replace him on the baseball broadcasts.

According to his biography on the Pirates Major League Baseball website, Incmikoski previously was a reporter and host for four seasons on Fox Sports North’s telecasts of Minnesota Twins baseball. He also covered the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Minnesota Wild and the University of Minnesota hockey team at FSN.

Incmikoski spent a year at Fox Sports Arizona covering the Arizona Diamondbacks, Coyotes and Suns. He also spent two seasons as the play-by-play announcer for the Arizona Sundogs of the former Central Hockey League. His broadcast career began in 2005 as the radio pre- and post-game host for the Phoenix Coyotes.
