Breaking News!!!! Brewers Fire Ned Yost...
The Brewers have fired manager Ned Yost.
MILWAUKEE -- The Milwaukee Brewers have fired manager Ned Yost in the midst of a late-season slump that has jeopardized the team's chances of making the playoffs for the first time since 1982.
Third-base coach Dale Sveum will become interim manager for the remainder of the season. Bench coach Ted Simmons was reassigned to an advisory role.
"This was a very difficult move to make, and we appreciate all of the work that Ned has done to develop this team into a contender," executive vice president and general manager, Doug Melvin said in a story on the Brewers' Web site. "In the end, this was a collaborative decision made to put our Club in the best position for the final two weeks of the season."
The Brewers have lost seven of their last 10, and share the NL wild-card lead with Philadelphia.
