Former Boston Red Sox legend and Baseball Hall of Famer Carl Yastrzemski, 68, has been admitted to Massachusetts General Hospital with chest pains. No other details are known at this time.
Yaz was a member of the Boston Red Sox from 1961-1983 and was named to 18 All-Star teams. He also was the AL MVP in 1967 after winning baseball’s Triple Crown and is the last person to do so.
He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame back in 1989 and his #8 is retired by the Red Sox.
media reports he will have or had bypass surgery done today.
Yeah I heard that as well. It’s coming up in the afternoon post in a few.
Yaz ended up having triple bypass surgery and is in the recovery room right now.
Yaz was my boyhood hero , my thoughts and prayers to him and his family…. Now can we sue that crappy contraceptive company that’s useing hi sname ??
Unfortunately he never registered it as a trademark so now Yaz is a poppa stoppa.
does anyone else find it funny they use “We’re not gonna take it” as the theme for the ad? seems kinda opposite of the whole premise because in reality aren’t they taking it? Hence the need for birth control.
