Rockies Fire Bud Black

The Colorado Rockies have relieved manager Bud Black of his duties following Sunday's win over the San Diego Padres. It was just a matter of time before Black was going to get fired.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Cleveland Guardians.
