Ned Yost fired

September 15, 2008

According to the Associated Press, Doug Melvin finally pulled the trigger and fired Ned Yost.

The move comes after the horrid four-game sweep in Philadelphia, in which the Brewers’ lead in the wild card was reduced to zero.

Third base coach Dale Sveum, not bench coach Ted Simmons, will take over for the remainder of the year. In fact, Simmons has been “reassigned to an advisory role.”
