New York Mets manager Terry Collins out of hospital

Mets manager Terry Collins was released from a Milwaukee-area hospital and returned to New York on Monday afternoon.

Collins fell ill prior to Sunday's game in Milwaukee and was transported to a hospital less than 30 minutes prior to first pitch against the Brewers.

Collins said he didn't feel well and the club decided to have him checked out at Froedtert Hospital in Milwaukee.

Collins, 67, was examined by the Brewers' team doctor prior to the decision to take him to the hospital.

"He's alert, fine," Mets assistant general manager John Ricco said Sunday. "He just wasn't feeling well before the game. So they're going to have some tests run. That's really all I have right now. ...

"Afterward, he was feeling OK. We're just being cautious here."

Bench coach Dick Scott served as manager for Sunday's game.

Collins is the oldest manager in the majors.
