Art Howe released from hospital after battling coronavirus

Former Oakland A’s manager Art Howe was released from the hospital on Sunday as he continues to battle the coronavirus.

The 73-year-old former manager was hospitalized on Tuesday after beginning to feel sick from the virus on May 3. He was placed in intensive care and needed to show no signs of a fever for 24 hours in order to be released. Apparently he met that criteria.

Howe lost his sense of taste when he was ill and is still feeling those effects.

Howe, who isn’t sure how he contracted the virus, also encouraged people to be careful, via the Houston Chronicle’s Brian McTaggart.

The good news is that Howe is making progress in his recovery.

Howe’s longest tenure as a manager came when he led the Oakland A’s from 1996-2002. He was portrayed in the movie “Moneyball” by late actor Philip Seymour-Hoffman.
