CLEVELAND (AP) Indians manager Terry Francona will not manage the American League All-Star team after a procedure to correct an irregular heartbeat.
Team officials said the 58-year-old had a cardiac ablation performed on Thursday at the Cleveland Clinic. Francona has been hospitalized and undergoing tests since Tuesday. He was admitted after doctors detected an arrhythmia when reading a monitor the manager has been wearing for several weeks. Francona had been experiencing dizziness, fatigue and a rapid heart rate.
The Indians said Friday that Francona remains in the hospital and is expected to be discharged in a ”day or two.
