MILWAUKEE (AP) — After spending the last eight seasons as Craig Counsell’s bench coach, Pat Murphy is taking over for his former boss as the Milwaukee Brewers’ manager.
Counsell took over as the Brewers’ manager when Ron Roenicke was fired in 2015.
He hired Murphy as his bench coach following that 2015 season.
When the Padres hired Andy Green as their full-time manager after the 2015 season, Murphy joined Counsell’s staff in Milwaukee.
Weeks played for the Brewers in 2003 and from 2005-14, making the NL All-Star team in 2011.
