Struggling Athletics dismiss pitching coach Scott Emerson following 9th
straight loss entering break
WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) --- The struggling Athletics on Monday dismissed
pitching coach Scott Emerson.
The team announced bullpen coach Dan Hubbs will serve as interim pitching coach
for the remainder of the season.
Sunday's 9-1 loss at the Chicago White Sox left the Athletics with a nine-game
losing streak entering the All-Star break. The Athletics' 5.21 ERA ranks next
to last in the major leagues, ahead of only Colorado's 5.44.
At 41-55, the Athletics are fourth in the AL West.
Emerson joined the Athletics in 2014 as bullpen coach and was promoted to
pitching coach in 2017.
