The Colorado Rockies, a day after losing by 21 runs to the San Diego Padres at Coors Field, fired manager Bud Black on Sunday.
The Rockies are off to a major league-worst 7-33 start even after defeating the Padres 9-3 on Sunday to salvage one game in the home series and snap an eight-game losing skid. Third-base coach Warren Schaeffer will serve as interim manager for the rest of the season, and hitting coach Clint Hurdle will be the interim bench coach.
