Ex-Boston Red Sox slugger David Ortiz has surgery for stomach hernias
Former Boston Red Sox slugger David Ortiz underwent surgery Wednesday for two stomach hernias, which were the product of his injuries from the attack he suffered exactly two years ago in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

Ortiz posted a photo Wednesday on WhatsApp where he appears dressed in hospital clothing. Last week, he attended the game played between the Dominican Republic and United States during the WBSC Baseball Americas Qualifier in West Palm Beach, Florida.
