The Boston Red Sox have fired manager Alex Cora amid a poor start to the season. Five members of Cora's coaching staff, including bench coach Rámon Vazquez, hitting coach Peter Fatse, third base coach Kyle Hudson, assistant hitting coach Dylan Lawson, and hitting strategy coach Joe Cronin, have also been reassigned within the organization. The move comes after a 17-1 win over the Baltimore Orioles, which pushed the Red Sox to 10-17. Cora was in his second stint as manager and led the team to a World Series title in 2018 and another winning campaign in 2019.
