Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale was admitted to a hospital late Sunday afternoon due to a stomach illness, according to team officials.
“From what I know, it is nothing serious,” manager Alex Cora said. “Whenever you have to go to hospital, you have to be quote-unquote ‘worried.’ But he should be fine.”
After being admitted to Massachusetts General Hospital, team officials updated that Sale would remain overnight for additional treatment. Cora mentioned that the team is positive about his recovery. “Hopefully we’ll get news in the upcoming hours and he’ll join us in Houston,” he said.
