NextImg:Chicago White Sox closer Liam Hendriks says he is cancer-free after undergoing treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Chicago White Sox closer Liam Hendriks announced he is cancer-free in an Instagram post Thursday.

“It’s official. I’m cancer free,” Hendriks wrote.

Hendriks began treatment in January for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Before the April 3 home opener against the San Francisco Giants, he announced in a recorded message on the video board he was beginning his last round of chemotherapy.

A couple of days later, Hendriks thanked family, friends and fans in an Instagram post that included a video of the Sox closer ringing the bell.

On Friday, Sox general manager Rick Hahn said of Hendriks: “You get caught up in the competitiveness, you get caught up in the slow start or injuries, you can always find something to be a little frustrated and disappointed about this game if you let it, but with Liam, he’s helped all of us sort of take a broader view about what’s important on a day-to-day basis.

“And at the same time, we’ve seen him not lose an ounce of his competitiveness, whether it’s been a battle against cancer or his battle to get back to his previous form and rejoin us. I think he’s been able to provide us all with a healthy dose of perspective as well as a lot of inspiration. Looking forward to having him back.”
