Former Nationals manager Davey Johnson at home after being hospitalized with COVID-19

Former Washington Nationals, Baltimore Orioles and New York Mets manager Davey Johnson was in a Florida hospital with COVID-19, according to former Mets spokesman Jay Horwitz.

Horwitz tweeted Friday that he spoke with Johnson‘s wife and the former Nationals skipper was released from the hospital.

“He is home and resting comfortably,” Horwitz tweeted. “Got his treatment at hospital and now taking it easy. Keep the good thoughts coming.”

Johnson, 77, was a four-time All-Star second baseman and managed the Mets to their last World Series title in 1986.
