DENVER, Aug. 2 (UPI) -- Chicago Cubs pitcher Carlos Silva was discharged from a Denver hospital Monday, one day after he was removed from a game due to an irregular heartbeat.
Silva was hospitalized with an abnormally high heart rate during a game with the Colorado Rockies Sunday and was taken to Denver's St. Joseph Hospital. The problem was corrected en route to the hospital but Silva was kept overnight for observation, before being discharged Monday morning, the Chicago Tribune reported.
