Royals hire Pena as rookie manager amid rough start

Through Tuesday they ranked last in runs errors and had a 5.29 ERA while hitting .243, prompting coach Baird to acknowledge expected ups and downs as Pena seeks to improve the club. Pena, a former All-Star catcher, becomes the fifth straight Royals manager without prior managerial experience and pledges to focus on daily work and refining the team's fundamentals.
