Chicago White Sox right-handed reliever Danny Farquhar suffered a brain hemorrhage during the sixth inning of Friday night's game against the Houston Astros, the team announced.
Farquhar was hospitalized after passing out in the dugout. Additional overnight testing revealed that a ruptured aneurysm caused the brain bleed. He is currently stable but in critical condition.
Farquhar faced four batters to finish the top of the sixth before he passed out after the inning. He was attended to by White Sox medical personnel and on-site emergency medical technicians.
The team said Farquhar was conscious when he was taken from Guaranteed Rate Field to the Rush University Medical Center.
