After the win in the Austrian Cup, Baumgartner failed to win any of his first seven matches in the Bundesliga. His league record at this point was five draws and two losses. His first league win came against Ried which finished 3–1. Baumgartner was sacked on 22 March 2015 after a 1–0 loss to Ried the previous day.Andreas Ogris was appointed as head coach for the remainder of the season. Baumgartner was the fifth coach since the club sacked Karl Daxbacher in 2011 and the 31st coach since 1990.
