BOSTON (AP) — Baseball Hall of Famer Carl Yastrzemski was hospitalized for tests Tuesday after experiencing chest pains.
The Boston Red Sox confirmed he was admitted to Massachusetts General Hospital and was undergoing evaluation and testing. The team said no further information was immediately available.
Asked whether it was serious, Yastrzemski spokesman Dick Gordon said: "Any time you are in the hospital, it's got to be pretty serious."
The 68-year-old Yastrzemski was baseball's last player to win the Triple Crown in 1967 and was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1989.
