Retired pitcher Fernando Valenzuela, who rose to prominence during more than a decade-long career with the Los Angeles Dodgers, has been hospitalized. 

Valenzuela suffered an unspecified health issue, according to multiple reports. 

The 63-year-old was in the booth for the Spanish-language broadcast last week for the Dodgers' series against the San Diego Padres.

According to the Los Angeles Daily News, Valenzuela is not expected to be available for his broadcast duties during MLB's postseason. The playoffs began Tuesday, but the Dodgers don't start postseason play until Oct. 5.

Valenzuela also made history that season by becoming the only player to win the NL Cy Young Award and Rookie of the Year in the same season.

He was also a two-time Silver Slugger Award winner and led the national league in wins in 1986. Valenzuela's accomplishments ignited "Fernandomania."
