Pete Mackanin will manage the Philadelphia Phillies next season after the club removed his interim tag.

The extension includes a club option for the 2017 season.

Mackanin, 64, was named interim manager of the Phillies on June 26 following the resignation of Ryne Sandberg. Since taking over, the Phillies have gone 30-46, which included a 21-12 stretch from July 17 through Aug. 23.
