    Former All-Star closer Ugueth Urbina has been released unexpectedly from a Venezuelan prison after serving more than 5½ years for attempted murder.

    Urbina, 38, was given a 14-year sentence in March 2007 after being accused of attacking and injuring workers with machetes and pouring gasoline on them at his family's ranch in October 2005.

    The prison officially stated that Urbina was released this past Saturday for good behavior.
