The Boston Red Sox fired pitching coach Dave Bush after four seasons, multiple outlets reported Monday.

Bush spent three years as the club's minor league pitching coordinator before becoming the pitching coach in advance of the 2020 season, replacing Dana LeVangie.

The Red Sox (78-84) finished 21st in the majors this season with a 4.52 team ERA.

Boston finished last in the American League East for the third time in the past four seasons.

Bush, 43, pitched in the majors for nine seasons (2004-11, 2013) with the Blue Jays, Brewers and Rangers.
