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.

The Rockies also announced that Mike Redmond has been dismissed as bench coach and replaced on an interim basis by hitting coach Clint Hurdle. Hurdle previously managed the Rockies from 2002 to 2009.
