"The Boston Red Sox fired manager Alex Cora, along with hitting coach Peter Fatse, third base coach Kyle Hudson, bench coach Ramón Vázquez, assistant hitting coach Dillon Lawson, and Major League hitting strategy coach Joe Cronin on Saturday."
"Chad Tracy was named interim manager for the Red Sox. Cora was in the second season of a three-year, $21.75 million contract extension he signed in July 2024 that made him one of the highest-paid managers in baseball."
"The sweeping changes came after the Red Sox routed the Baltimore Orioles, 17-1. That snapped a four-game losing streak but still left the Red Sox in last place in the American League East with a 10-17 record this season."
"Chad Tracy had served as Manager of Triple-A Worcester since 2022. He spent the previous seven seasons in the Los Angeles Angels Minor League system, including three as manager of Low-A Burlington and High-A Inland Empire."
