Chad Tracy’s Interim Role Gives Red Sox New Hope

Following the dismissal of third‑winningest manager Alex Cora, the Red Sox installed Chad Tracy as interim manager. The 42‑year‑old, whose father Jim managed 11 MLB seasons, is 50% through his first games in Boston and is tasked with reversing a bleak start to the season. Tracy’s appointment echoes the 2009 Rockies’ quick turnaround after taking over from Clint Hurdle, a move that revitalized the club’s performance. moryak.biz
