0:00On April 28th, the Boston Red Sox just shook up their world by firing manager Alex Korra and his entire coaching staff. This came right after the New York Yankees swept him in a three-game series at Fenway, where Boston could only muster three runs total. Now folks are buzzing that Metskipper Carlos Mendoza could be next in line for the job. Yankees manager Aaron Boone was caught off guard by the move. He called it a surprise, especially from a division rival, but praised Korra's stature in the game. Boone knows Korra will bounce back with plenty of options ahead. Despite the rivalry, there is clear respect between the two skippers. Both have managed in high-pressure spots, like New York and Boston, facing constant heat from fans and media. Boone himself has dodged calls for his own firing, even with solid success, but no world series ring yet. Reports suggest the Yankees dominance in that sweep played a role in Boston's decision. Red Sox Brass made the call Saturday morning, gutting the staff in response to the poor showing.

1:01As the AL East heats up, Korra's exit leaves Boston scrambling while the Yankees keep rolling. Expect more twists in this fierce rivalry, as teens gear up for the stretch run. That wraps Boston Red Sox News today, brought to you with AI. I'm Cory with the story.
