Bud Black out as San Diego Padres manager.
Since he was hired following the 2006 season, Black had never taken the Padres to the playoffs. In 2010, they went from an apparent stranglehold on the NL West title, to losing 10 consecutive games, to official elimination on the final day of the regular season.
Black was 649-713 over roughly eight seasons.
