Dodgers manager Dave Roberts on Bud Black’s dismissal as manager of the Colorado Rockies: “Casey Stengel couldn’t change the outcome of that ballclub.”

Bud Black, the longest-tenured manager in Colorado Rockies history, was fired in his ninth season as the team slides toward a historically bad season.

Black was in his ninth season as Rockies manager after being hired in 2017. After making back-to-back playoff appearances in his first two years, Colorado has endured six straight losing seasons under his direction. He ends his tenure with a 544-690 record.
