Some good news for the New York Mets. Some good news for baseball. Some better news for Ron Darling.
The former Mets pitcher and longtime broadcaster issued a statement this morning indicating his thyroid cancer has been stabilized and his doctors have given him the all clear to return to the broadcast booth. He will rejoin Gary Cohen and former Mets teammate Keith Hernandez at Citi Field to call tomorrow night's game against the San Francisco Giants.
Darling, who turns 59 in August, took a leave of absence in mid-April after a mass was discovered in his chest. He had expected to be back in May, but those plans were thwarted when Darling learned his diagnosis.
Finally, Mets fans will have something to cheer about this season.
