The Cleveland Indians fired Manager Doc Edwards, hoping to reverse a late-season slump that dropped the team out of its first pennant race in 15 years.
Edwards, 52, was replaced on an interim basis by John Hart, 41, a former coach and minor league manager in the Baltimore organization. Hart was the Orioles’ third base coach last year and was brought to Cleveland this season by Indians president Hank Peters, formerly Baltimore’s general manager.
Hart was a minor league catcher in the Montreal system for three years.
