Former eight-time Gold Glove winner Jim Edmonds was in hospital Saturday with symptoms similar to the COVID-19 disease.

The 49-year-old Edmonds is awaiting test results after trying to tough it out on his own. But he says his condition worsened and he decided to check himself into a hospital.

"Held off as long as I could," Edmonds wrote on Instagram and included a photo of himself wearing a mask.

"I thought I was tough enough to get through. This virus is no joke. #gethealthy."
