REPORT: Former Cubs Pitching Coach Chris Bosio Fired By Tigers For Saying Racist Shit

The Detroit Tigers fired pitching coach Chris Bosio on Wednesday and it came out of nowhere. At first nothing was coming out on the specific reason that the former Cubs coach was let go, other than this vague statement by the Tigers.

There was a lot of speculation whether whatever the comment made by Bosio was racist and according to the ABC station in Detroit, the comments made by the coach were indeed racist. Via WXYZ.

Bosio used racially charged language towards a team employee, WXYZ has learned.

Bosio was hired by the Tigers prior to the 2018 season after the Cubs decided to move forward without him, replacing Bosio with Jim Hickey following the 2017 season.
