CHICAGO -- Cleveland Guardians manager Terry Francona tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday and will be sidelined indefinitely.
The 63-year-old currently is not showing any symptoms. Francona missed much of the past two seasons with a variety of health issues.
Guardians bench coach DeMarlo Hale, who filled in when Francona stepped away last season, will manage the series finale against the White Sox. Hale will stay in that role until Francona returns to the team.
The Guardians are off on Thursday before opening a three-game series in Minnesota on Friday.
Francona has been in a good health this season following two challenging years.
