Is a verbal commitment over the phone a legal contract?

It can be ... but, can you prove it in court?

Is a verbal commitment over the phone a legal contract?

What you're calling a verbal commitment (via telephony) would probably be considered a PROMISE.
PROMISES are not enforceable under our laws.
Not because it was given orally, but for the fact its missing several requisites, main among them: CONSIDERATION.

But, I'm guessing, so as Pro commented, if you gave a few more particulars, perhaps we could be more precise.

If it's not in writing - hard to prove. However, we don't have much information from you.
