Milwaukee, WI (Sports Network) - The Brewers' ongoing bullpen meltdown has
cost bullpen coach Stan Kyles his job.
Kyles had been with the Brewers organization since 2001 and was named bullpen
coach following the 2008 season.
Lee Tunnell, who had been the team's minor league pitching coordinator, will
replace Kyles. He is in his fourth season with the organization.
The move comes one day after Milwaukee's bullpen gave up nine runs over the
final five innings of Sunday's 11-inning, 11-10 loss to the Nationals.
For the season, Brewers relievers are 15-26 with a 4.80 earned run average.
They have recorded the most blown saves (20) in the majors and rank 28th in
ERA.
