Dave Roberts watched the second in-season MLB manager change occur Sunday. The Los Angeles Dodgers skipper witnessed Bud Black lose his job. The Colorado Rockies fired Black on Mother’s Day, following a rough start for the franchise.

The Colorado Rockies announced today that they are relieving longtime manager Bud Black of his duties amid a horrible 7-33 start. As it relates to the Los Angeles Dodgers' manager, Dave Roberts, he has made it clear that Black was a mentor for him in his journey to becoming an MLB skipper.

Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani is one of the best hitters in baseball year after year, generating offense that few can match, even though his pitching has been sidelined due to Tommy John surgery.
