Phillies fire Rob Thomson after 9-19 start; Don Mattingly named interim manager
Thomson, who led the Phillies to the playoffs four straight years, paid the price for a team with the game’s fifth-highest payroll starting off 9-19, which included a 10-game losing streak.
4 post season appearances, back to back NL titles. 9 and 19 start. I liked him, hopefully Mattingly creates a spark.
