Fired Padres Manager McNamara Says He Did His Best
San Diego AP reports John McNamara, 44, tearfully states he gave 159 per cent after being fired as Padres manager following a 5-4 win over the Astros. Bob Skinner named interim manager as the club plans the search for a full-time successor. The Padres sit 20-28, 14 1/2 games behind the Dodgers in the NL West. McNamara, in his fourth season, leaves as the winningest SD skipper with 224 wins and 31 losses, the third manager to be dismissed in the club’s nine-year era.
