It seems that your iPhone is also getting hot. Are you using the devices in a hot environment?

Note this Apple support article:

Download and install a temperature/fan speed monitoring application.

Open Activity Monitor to ALL PROCESSES and set CPU to display values from high to low.

When the MBP gets 'hot' take images of both and post them for review.
