We just got word that Carl Yastrzemski is now out of the hospital. Good news all around.

Yastrzemski underwent emergency triple-bypass surgery last Tuesday at Massachusetts General Hospital after being diagnosed with coronary artery disease.

Yastrzemski, the folk hero of the 1967 Impossible Dream season that forever changed the franchise's fortunes, underwent a six-hour procedure to reroute the flow of blood around blockages in three arteries to his heart.

Background material from the Globe's Bob Hohler was used in this report.
