NEW YORK -- The Yankees hired Brad Ausmus to replace Carlos Mendoza as bench coach for manager Aaron Boone, the team announced Tuesday.

Ausmus managed Detroit from 2014-17 and the Los Angeles Angels in 2019, winning the AL Central at 90-72 in his first season with the Tigers before Baltimore swept Detroit in a Division Series.

Now 54, Ausmus spent 2022 as the Oakland Athletics' bench coach for manager Bob Melvin.

Mendoza had been the Yankees' bench coach for four seasons when he left on Nov. 13 to manage the New York Mets.
