Bruce Bochy to Miss Giants' Next 2 Games After Atrial Flutter Procedure
San Francisco Giants manager Bruce Bochy will miss the two-game series against the Kansas City Royals starting Tuesday after undergoing a procedure for an "atrial flutter," or abnormal heartbeat.
Jorge L. Ortiz of USA Today reported the news and noted bench coach Ron Wotus will manage the team in Bochy's absence before he returns Friday.
The procedure took place near Bochy's home in San Diego, and he will remain resting there until joining the team for the weekend series against the Colorado Rockies, per Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle.
