Former manager Charlie Manuel has suffered a stroke while undergoing a medical procedure in a Florida hospital, the Philadelphia Phillies announced. The team says 'the hospital was able to attend to Charlie immediately and subsequently remove a blood clot,' but 'the next 24 hours will be crucial to his recovery." The 79-year-old Manuel managed the Phillies for nine seasons from 2005-13 and guided them to a World Series championship in 2008. He also spent three years as a manager in Cleveland from 2000-02.
