MIAMI (AP) — Tarrik Brock is the latest interim first-base coach for the Florida Marlins.
The team announced the move on Sunday, a day after Dave Collins surprised the organization by abruptly resigning. Brandon Hyde coached first Saturday night.
Brock is expected to remain the first-base coach when the Marlins play a three-game series starting Monday against the New York Mets in San Juan.
Brock has been a roving minor league outfield and baserunning coordinator in the Marlins’ organization. Collins resigned three days after the Marlins fired his close friend, manager Fredi Gonzalez.
