The Phillies have announced that pitcher Jamie Moyer is doing well after surgery on Friday.
Moyer had to be hospitalized on Tuesday following symptoms from sports hernia surgery on Oct. 2.
"Jamie is doing very well," Phillies physician Michael Ciccotti said in a statement. "The surgery is not likely to impact his rehab schedule and is likely to have minimal impact on his spring training schedule."
He was hospitalized just five days after the initial surgery because of a blood infection.

Utility infielder Juan Castro is close to joining the Phillies, according to his agent.
"We're close to having a deal done," agent Oscar Suarez told Delaware Online by phone. "We're just a physical away from getting this done. He's excited about joining the Phillies. It's tough to leave an organization like the Dodgers, but if you're joining the Phillies, maybe it's not as tough."
Castro, 37, can play all infield positions, but has the most experience at second base and shortstop.
