Former Tiger manager Brad Ausmus is the new skipper of the Angels of Anaheim
The Los Angeles Angels have a new manager.
Brad Ausmus has been named to the position by MLB team General Manager Billy Eppler.
Ausmus served as Eppler's special assistant last season. He's a former big league catcher who spent four seasons as the Detroit Tigers' manager from 2014 to 2017.
Contract terms were not released.
Ausmus replaces Mike Scioscia, who left the club earlier this month after 19 seasons.
Scioscia is the winningest manager in franchise history and led them to their only World Series title in 2002.
