A's Fire Pitching Coach for Change | Oakland Athletics News
Description
The Oakland A’s are in freefall, losers of 13 of their last 14 games and on a nine-game skid, prompting a bold move: firing pitching coach Scott Emerson. With an MLB-worst ERA of 5.21 and frequent blowouts, the team’s pitching woes have been mounting for years—even before this season. Despite playing in a hitter-friendly park, Emerson’s staffs have consistently ranked near the bottom. Now, bullpen coach Dan Hubbs will step in as interim pitching coach, hoping to spark a turnaround as injuries pile up and the A’s desperately seek a second-half resurgence.
