Brewers fire manager Ron Roenicke
The last-placed Milwaukee Brewers fired manager Ron Roenicke on Sunday.
The move comes just 25 games into the season, but the Brewers (7-18) are currently the worst team in the league.
They were 341-331 in Roenicke's four-plus years as manager.
Brewers general manager Doug Melvin said in a statement that the team's decision to fire Roenicke went beyond their record.
"This has been a difficult start to the season, something that we did not anticipate," Melvin said.
"Over roughly the last 100 games, we have not performed at the level that we should. The reasons for our disappointing start are many, but we determined it's in the best interests of the club to make this move."
The team are planning to announce a replacement at a news conference on Monday.
