Curve's Duffy taken by ambulance to hospital for dehydration

Curve center fielder Chris Duffy was taken by ambulance to Altoona Hospital for dehydration following Thursday night's game.

He was on a stretcher in the Curve clubhouse after the game against Harrisburg at Blair County Ballpark.

Curve trainer Thomas Pribyl called it a mild case of dehydration and added Duffy just needed to receive lots of fluids.

Duffy had been out of the lineup for about a week with flu-like symptoms and inner-ear problems. The 28-year-old started Thursday night but was lifted in the seventh inning after complaining of dehydration symptoms.
