CLEVELAND, Ohio - Manager Terry Francona was back in the dugout on Wednesday night after being hospitalized Tuesday night when lightheadedness and a rapid heart rate forced him to leave the Indians game in the eighth inning.
Francona was taken by ambulance to Cleveland Clinic where he underwent several tests. Francona, 58, told reporters the results of the tests showed he was dehydrated.
"They gave me a bunch of IVs," said Francona, who was released early Wednesday morning. "They did a bunch of tests. I checked out. I think I was just really dehydrated."
Francona added with a smile, "They even checked my brain and they didn't find anything, which did not surprise me.
